Thank you, Madam Chair. Absolutely. At this point, the meeting fund, it's confusing, well, it's not really confusing. Basically, we take turns with the bilaterals, which are the meetings between executive and the Indigenous governments. One meeting, it's in their territory, and the next is in Yellowknife. It just happens that there will be more in Yellowknife this time. However, the bigger thing is that we are in COVID-19. We did not use all the money, and unless something changes throughout Canada, I don't know. We won't be doing a lot of travelling until, at minimum, the end of March, until 75 percent are vaccinated. Some Indigenous governments want in-person; they want to come to Yellowknife. Other ones do not even want to see us; they just want people to stay away from our communities. We are predicting that we won't need any more than this in the coming year unless the borders open. We are looking at September for the South. If there is need more, then we will find it internally, but at this point, we are projecting that a lot of meetings for this area will be on video conferencing. Thank you, Madam Chair.
