Thank you, Mr. Speaker. As I've said in this House before, we are in the middle of negotiations. The federal negotiator is meeting with ours. The next meeting I believe is, in fact, I know it is next week. It's tough. The federal negotiator, of course, is looking after federal interests; our negotiators are looking after our interests. There are outstanding issues they have to resolve. It's not going to be easy. I can tell you we are focused on achieving what we want, an agreement-in-principle, but at the same time we are not going to accept a bad deal. Thank you, Mr. Speaker.
