Thank you, Mr. Chairman. I wouldn't want the Minister to get the impression that I don't think the APG is a good project. I think it is critical to get the whole project going as far as running the pipeline. We just heard in the diamond industry how government supported major industry getting developed in the diamond industry, but here it seems to be a totally different approach. Rather than securing loans with loan guarantees, now it's strictly a contribution. We are talking fairly good money here. We are talking $15 million over six years. If I had another question it would be on this whole page, the work the APG is doing as far as getting ownership in a pipeline and preparing for a pipeline, and then the contribution for funding for aboriginal organizations of $360,000 a year, and the same with the private sector partnership of $500,000 for on-the-job training. Do these funding pots not tie in somewhat supporting somewhat the same groups?
