Thank you, Mr. Speaker. There's no way I couldn't say that the Minister wasn't correct on that, but the fact is a few years ago this Assembly looked at putting a hotel tax dedicated to just tourism dollars. That never floated, unfortunately, but we could redirect this revenue to show how important this issue is, and the fact is, we may not be able to control the percentage in the sense of the actual dollars every year, but we can further demonstrate that we care about this problem, because good working programs don't have enough money. Mr. Speaker, would the Minister consider that? Thank you.
