Thank you, Madam Chair. I guess this cautious approach, I guess, in spending in capital spending is interesting. But I guess what is concerning, I guess, to me, is that, you know, is that, you know, departments appear, I guess -- we know that they're unable to spend money -- spend the funding received from federal government to actually complete projects and, you know, we're seeing important projects being pushed back. We're seeing possible, you know, maybe lapse of funding; I'm not sure. But does the Minister -- does this raise a concern, I guess, to the Minister because, you know, we look at less spending on capital, but have we looked at anything else to maybe encourage, say, securing contractors to come north, finding ways to, you know, entice workers to come north so that we can actually, you know, take these projects on and, you know, finish them with the money we have before we start losing it. Thank you.
