Thank you. So I can tell you that, you know, what we encourage is community-regional experience. It really helps at headquarters. You know, unfortunately sometimes the positions that we have within this, the organization, when people apply they do not have that community or regional experience. So our priority has always been to try to get community and regional people into headquarters where possible, especially -- because I -- I agree with the Member, what better way to be able to do things and understand things if you understand it from the community-regional aspect of things. I know -- and I can just use my experience from the sport rec side, that's how it used to be all the time. You had to have community experience before you moved into regional or headquarters. So we've been able to do that. Some of the superintendents that have moved on to headquarters have had that community regional experience, and it does build to the capacity. So, yeah, very much so, we look at that. But we want to get the best person for the job and sometimes the best person for the job may or may not have that community-regional experience. But we've been very fortunate, I would say. Everybody that I've seen, the new hires recently, has been community or NGOs or regional experience moving forward. So hopefully that answers the question the Member's looking for. Thank you, Madam Chair.
