Thank you, Mr. Speaker. I hope I got the nature of the question. The PAS is, in fact, grassroots driven. It's really up to communities to identify areas that they think are culturally sensitive or natural or cultural areas that they feel are special and indeed need protection. So we rely on communities to identify those and then the various partners in the PAS all combine to make sure that those areas are, in fact, protected from future development. Thank you, Mr. Speaker.
