Thank you, Madam Chair. At this point, we do project that we should be -- we shall be fine. We'd be able to continue with things. But it's important to note, I think, that the monies that we spend on consultations with Indigenous governments changes every year and it's based on -- some of that is based on negotiations and the travel that we do with them. Some of it is based on what we call bilaterals, which is the groups that -- the meetings that we have regularly with -- annually or biannually with Indigenous governments. Some years, it all happens in Yellowknife and then we have to pay for them all to come here, which is very expensive, and other years, like this year coming up, it happens in their communities and so we go there, which is actually more affordable for us. So this year, we should be fine. Next year, I'm not sure. Thank you, Madam Chair.
