Thank you, Madam Chair. So I mean, Madam Chair, this is one of those times where the totality of the government budget does come into play here. You know, there -- had the entire project been done as a typical or a normal -- or rather just a typical infrastructure project funded entirely by the government and not in the P3 process, well then there would have been a greater demand and draw from the capital budget. And for a project of this size, a requirement for significant amount of debt to be taken upon -- taken on in order to build the project. So by undertaking a P3 project, it spreads out the impacts over the course of multiple years and shares that risk between the private sector and us so that we're able to undertake that project now and not have to wait for one period of time. And that's where the benefits come in, Madam Chair.
So now the other question around how P3 projects, mindful of time, are evaluated. I know there's been -- there was at one time a fairly detailed briefing about the Stanton P3 but if there is interest, we'd certainly be happy to do a briefing to the committee on how P3, the P3 process is evaluated. Thank you, Madam Chair.
