It's surprising, because when the president of Aurora College sat in front of committee, it certainly was made very clear to us that if there's one thing that they could get to continue would be that $500,000 funding to ensure that program continued on. So I'm a little surprised that it wasn't brought forward to the department as well. The department obviously is aware that they do require that funding for that training, that particular program, to ensure that they can qualify -- the programs would qualify the insurance requirements to become a polytechnic. So has the department had any conversations with Aurora College around that, around -- again, as part of the polytechnic transformation process, the importance of having that program continue?
