Thank you, Mr. Chair. The way this program was initially designed, there was a division in the budget, Small Communities Fund, and then a national/regional component where they were looking for things that were more territorial or national in nature. However, as of budget 2016, those criteria have changed and we are just in the process of bringing an amending agreement forward. That criteria has now been eliminated and all of our communities are applying under what's called the Small Communities Fund, which is any municipal infrastructure would be eligible. Canada decided to streamline their proposal process and those criteria have change.
