Thank you, Mr. Chair. Mr. Chair,

Canada's position is that, if we didn't take best efforts to sell the property, then my belief was we were going to be responsible for the liabilities, so we had to make best efforts. We weren't pleased with the prices that came back. Canada wasn't pleased with the prices that came back. As a government, we made the decision that we would purchase the property, knowing that if we did, then Canada would be responsible for the remediation of the property, then if there is an opportunity, if the price of tungsten goes up, then we would move that property.
