Thank you, Mr. Chair. I am just getting back to the amendments. First of all, I would like to thank the department. I think, for my region, all four communities in my riding rely on seasonal shipping, so it also reduces the cost of living and the cost of petroleum, as well. I can't speak for others, but I know my colleague from the Sahtu also looks at this as an essential service. In short, I am supporting this. I know taking over a big operation like this is a logistical nightmare, and it can be, and $35 million is actually a drop in the bucket if something goes wrong with something like this, due to the costs of shipping on the ocean as opposed to shipping on the lakes and the rivers. Those two types of marine shipping vary, and they are quite different, actually. I am just giving my support for this. Thank you, Mr. Chair.
