Thank you. I certainly agree with the Minister. I think the commitments being made are really hollow, and I think the Minister has clearly articulated that. I'm wondering though, considering the meeting of the northern Premiers with the Prime Minister on Thursday, if it's helpful to have the MP and our Finance Minister out there. It seems to be an inconsistent message. Was there not some discussion about taking a consistent message to Ottawa, so that we're not seen to be disputing the cause of the deficit? Thank you.
