Thank you, Mr. Speaker. Mr. Speaker, we have been working for a number of years now on a number of issues that are common to all the residents of Canada. There has been a lot of focus in the last while regarding the infrastructure requirements, and that includes recreation facilities and sports facilities. That's something we've raised at the federal/provincial/territorial level. We've also raised the issue of participation and getting people more active. As sports Ministers from across Canada, we've worked with the federal government, we've set a target of increasing ParticipACTION by 10 percent. So those things are coming forward and I'm expecting that some of these announcements will be as a result of some of that work that took place. Thank you.
