Thank you. I see that last year we saw about $690,000, yes, about a $700,000 increase. No, I can't do math fast. Yes, about $750,000. But next year we're projecting about a $150,000 increase. I'm happy to see that the increase has tapered off a bit. I do understand that we need to recover some of the costs, but we do need to balance that with airlines' ability and capacity to stay competitive and to control their costs of doing business. They are under a lot of other pressures, especially for our two northern carriers because of the big brother, the third airline that decided to come to Yellowknife. Mr. Chairman, could I ask whether we could take the somewhat smaller increase to be the one that would be the trend for awhile, or would it change continuously and what is the amortization period, if there is any, to recover the cost? Is it over a period of 5 or 10 years to recover, or is it going to be on a year-by-year basis cost-recovery kind of system? Thank you.
