Thank you. Again, I was having a hard time hearing, and I apologize to Mr. Campbell. We're able to access funding for the federal government. I understand that and it was very successful; however, right now that funding, I'm assuming, is gone and so is the department willing to look at within their coffers to see if there's funding available especially for the smaller communities like the Trout Lakes, the Jean Maries, the Nahanni Buttes, the Lutselk'e, the Fort Res, these small communities that don’t have a lot of money and are, you know, a little bit strapped, and after I had seen what happened in Fort McMurray, that really scares me. If it happens there, we're going to lose communities, and so is the department willing to look at or even, and maybe it is shot for this budget, but next year's budget, so that we can work with the communities, have money available to do firebreaks. Thank you, Mr. Chair.
