Mr. Chairman, actually the non-tax-based communities got more of the MRIF money than the tax-based; they just took theirs earlier. The money that went to non-tax-based communities, which was 50 per cent of the pot, has already gone down by those communities. These dollars are still flowing to the tax-based communities, as they needed to provide a matching amount.
