Thank you, Madam Chair. I know it was before our time, but they used to have the language secretariat. I heard nothing but good things said about it. For whatever reason, the political will at the time just decided to get rid of that. For me, I think that was just a mistake. Anytime you cut funding from language, you are going to have that gap. Now, you are starting to see that. I want to see all kinds of support go towards our translators now to try to keep that going, keep trying to recruit new learners, anybody who is interested in translating, to give them all the supports they need. I am hoping we can do that with what we have here, so that is just my comment. Thank you.
