Thank you, Mr. Speaker. It's $25,000 more than the community of Fort Smith gets, but less than other communities. But the Member's point is a good one, that this is an area where there is policy clarification that's required. Transportation, Municipal and Community Affairs and Health and Social Services identified this some time ago now, and we intend to be able to bring forward a document in the next few weeks that's going to lay out some options in terms of rationalizing and bringing some clarity to the whole issue of services both for ambulance services response on highways, and the more routine issue of the medical transportation in communities. It is a complicated issue, and it's one where there's been no clear home or ownership, and we've recognized that and we've taken the steps to try to rectify that. Thank you.
