Thank you. There is no room in the budget to increase it. The larger wage subsidy is funded through federal government programs, and they have a lot more money. The other wage subsidies, the $8 wage subsidies, are funded by the GNWT. We have to do our best to stretch our dollars as far as we can, and we don't have enough to fund all of the apprentices in the territory with that budget. Even as is, we fall quite short of that. Thank you.
