Thank you, Madam Chair. The other general comments that I had, we’ve been kicking around some of the ideas. One of the ideas is: Has the department looked at, as far as the 215s, what the plan is going forward with them? Are there discussions of selling them off? Are there discussions of maybe keeping them until we have operation? The Minister talked about three years left in the contract, but is there discussion of maybe operating the two newer units along with the 215s for a period of time this year or next year and what our capacities are? My understanding is we don’t get a whole ton of money for these older 215s but we might want to look at a mixture. On busy years like we had, the cost of running those, maybe, versus us having to hire bigger planes or the newer 415s from some other jurisdiction. Has the department looked at what we’re going to do with the 215s, and is there an option to keep them and keep them operational for a few more years to see the mixture between them and the 802s? Thank you, Madam Chair.
