Yes, Mr. Speaker, we will certainly do that. I'll work with our regional staff, with the Mackenzie gas project office, to ensure that happens. It's important to remember in these SEAs that the commitments are made, Mr. Speaker, to hire people if they're ready. So we, as a government, have decided to focus on getting our people ready. They will make commitments to use our businesses if our businesses have the capacity and the ability. So we've chosen to focus on working with the proponent to get our businesses ready, Mr. Speaker. I think that's the most critical point in these socio-economic agreements. Lots of reasons for us not to achieve targets. We want to remove those reasons. Lots of reasons for people not to be able to get to the jobsite. We negotiated that people will have their way paid to the jobsite, Mr. Speaker. These are important aspects of this agreement. Thank you.
