Thank you, Mr. Chairman. Maybe this is a good place, then, to ask what's happening with that negotiation, because last time we talked about this, the Minister, I believe was talking to Minister Frulla, and there were some discussions as to what the federal government was requiring. What does it mean now that we have a new government? Is the negotiation on hold? That's going to be a pretty big cut there of $3 million this year; actually, 3.4, 3.5 from last year. Although the year 2004-05 was substantially less. So what do we do? What kind of things do we fund under that program, and what kind of impact would that have, and could the Minister give an update as to where do we see this negotiation going?
