Thank you, Madam Chair. Madam Chair, the shift really is now away from relief into recovery. There is Tourism 2025, which is the five-year strategy that you might recall was coming out back in March of 2020 but we put a hold on it and took it back and grateful to have done so, not knowing then what we know now, which is the level of impact on the industry. So there is funding in this -- in this proposed budget for Tourism 2025, looking at just over a million dollars in 2022-2023, to support four different priorities, you know, the investment that we need in the infrastructure for the industry, engagement with tourism stakeholders, you know, helping them gather data about the market, and of course, helping them build a capacity. So there certainly will be and are financial supports available through the department for the industry just that the focus now is to shift towards reopening.
And Madam Chair, I'd be remiss to not say there's -- this is an area where we do get a lot of support from CanNor, and a lot of the programs are often jointly funded by the two. So expecting that to continue in some fashion. Not entirely sure what it will look like from the federal side but we do have money available on our end. Thank you.
