Thank you, Mr. Chair. Just a quick supplement, if I may. The Taiga Lab was part of the devolution package and the federal government knew, for some time, that they were going to be transferring assets, s
o they didn’t
renovate and rehabilitate every asset they had to peak condition before they turned it over
to us, that’s
one thing.
What was brought before the House last time, if my memory serves me correctly, was the bringing on, of course, the staff as employees and not contract individuals where they, under the federal system, paid their way by doing all the scientific work that they do and getting reimbursed from industry that offset their wages. We brought them on board permanently. We do recognize, as well, that the Taiga Lab is well past its best before date and is going to be on the list to be renewed or replaced. Thank you.
