Thank you, Mr. Chair. Okay, you know, these are -- a lot of these programs and services, it's very important for many of the small communities. And I know when I -- a lot of our young people always -- when they're talking -- you know, in high school, they always -- a lot of them have said, I want to work at the mine, you know, because we know that post-secondary is not for everybody so a lot of them said, I want to work at the mine, you know, make money and maybe from there, I'll -- you know, like, they'll get their trades, you know, into trades program or, you know, get an apprenticeship through mining for trades. So a lot of them have said that. And here I see trades and occupations wage subsidy went down. I think my colleague said that it went down to 922, so it's a -- well, it's not a huge but it's a decrease, you know, to $922,000. Can the Minister explain why there's a reduction in that budget for this upcoming fiscal year? Thank you.
