Mr. Speaker, no, we are not putting more money into the bridge. What we did as a government, in the last government, is provide some advance funding for the initial work that had to be done pre-construction. That is to be repaid when the bridge financing is all put together. That can't be completed until the environmental assessment is done and the design is completed. So we've had to, because of the request for an environmental assessment, extend our loan guarantee. But, no, we are not putting more money into the bridge. Thank you, Mr. Speaker.
