Thanks for the comments. That’s a very long-term prospect, obviously, the Heritage Fund, and I see absolutely no commitment in this budget for putting money in that, despite the fact that it’s there, and as the Minister said, the valuation of diamond export last year was a near record. Gold prices are at the highest they’ve ever been by a great deal, hundreds of percent. So I’m wondering, rather than wait, given our revenues in addition to that, our revenues are up $132 million this year, would the Minister commit to starting to capture some of that value right now, recognizing the lack of lasting legacy benefits that we’re getting from non-renewable resource benefit right now and for the past several decades. Will he get some money in that fund this year? Mahsi.
