Thank you, Mr. Chairman. I guess just to put it into context with the last Collective Agreement -- I think it was three, three and three, over three years percentage wise -- if we were to do that based on our current calculations of what it costs the government for the public service, at $400 million, that is $36 million over three years and that is just on the three, three and three.

Whatever deal we arrive at with the union is going to have huge implications on our budgeting for the next three, four or five years, whatever term the contract is, whatever the deal is. That is what I am trying to get across to other Members of the House. I know it's a huge expense and we have to budget for it and it is going to obviously cost us more money. It is going to have a huge impact on our budgeting and our surplus. Thank you.
