Thank you, Mr. Chairman. I was wondering if I could find out where we are in the process of the air tanker contracts? Are we in the middle of the contracts or are we going out to tender for contracts? What is happening with the air tankers?

Thank you, Mr. Chairman. Mr. Chairman, the air tanker contract we have with Buffalo Airways is coming up for re-tendering at the end of this fire season, which is in the fall. We are meeting with the proponents right now to listen to different proposals that are out there. Thank you.

Thank you, Mr. Chairman. From that, can I take it there has been a letter or an invitation to different companies to make proposals? Is that how it is being handled?

Thank you. No, Buffalo Airways are meeting with our officials today. They are coming forward with a proposal. We want to listen to them to see what the proposal is going to say. From there, we will determine which way we are going to go. Thank you.

Okay. I just want to be clear, because I thought I heard the Minister say they were looking at proposals from different proponents. At this point, it is one proposal that is on the table. Is that correct?
