My understanding is that at least two of them have applied. One was turned down and the others felt that they could not change. They were in the sports hunting business and they couldn’t see themselves fit to change their product. After that we came up with marketing dollars strictly for the caribou outfitters, in the neighbourhood of about $150,000 a year and we’ve been working very closely with the Barren Ground Outfitters to see how that money could be spent.
