Thank you, Mr. Speaker. Mr. Speaker, that's exactly the kind of question that the department needs to look at and analyze more carefully in terms of tracking what the costs are, who is paying those costs. Are these, you know, consumers that are industrial consumers and transportation trucks, or is it individual citizens paying at the pumps. These are all some of the considerations we want to take in and considering what will the impacts be and where would we be able to find those funds. For every -- every time, of course, if we were say that we're going to stop the fuel tax, we need to consider what that does to the government's ability to provide relief in various forms to the most vulnerable -- the most vulnerable residents. So again, exactly that question is what we'll be looking at. Thank you, Mr. Speaker.
