Thank you, Madam Chair. I am looking at some of the contribution funding, such as, in particular, the Healthy Food for Learning line item. I am glad to see that it's still there. I am just wondering if we are not really accounting for the fact that more and more students are going to be looking to access help as sort of the next while the cost of living does continue to increase for workers if we are starting to claw back income supports, things like that; maybe some federal supports are going to end. I am going to imagine we are going to see an uptake in students accessing supports like that that the school provides, and I do not know if there are others that I am just not seeing here. I guess my question to the Minister is: is there an area or a way that he is looking to find money within the departments to increase supports to the programs that the schools offer to sort of low-income children or children in need? Thank you.
