Thank you, Mr. Speaker. We could have that kind of discussion. We will certainly consider it. But, Mr. Speaker, my focus has been on resource revenue sharing. We are talking about a net fiscal benefit of plus 40 percent of our resource revenues. I would not want to make a deal on something that gave us seven percent and then we are told by the federal government to be happy with that. I hear what the Member is saying. I certainly will consider it, but we have to look at the big picture and not get bought off on little deals. Thank you, Mr. Speaker.
