Yeah, thank you for the clarification. I don't know why I had the 800 in my mind. But that's good to hear. I think the fact that Nunavut doesn't have one is the reason why we should be leading this conversation because, you know, if they don't need the quota right now -- clearly they don't -- then we could make use of theirs until they're at a time to be ready. So I really encourage the Minister to have more than a conversation, put a plan together, and really aggressively lobby, and lean on the provinces too because, you know, here's a secret. The provinces understand the territories are different than the provinces and are very willing to support us in our specific needs, and I think they will buy into this approach, especially if we broaden the conversation into Arctic sovereignty as well. So I strongly encourage the Minister to put a plan together, or at least a concept together, that can be shared with Premier Pillai, and I'm not sure who the Minister responsible is in Nunavut as well, but build a coalition and find a number that works for all three territories that we can share and bring that to the desk of the Minister of citizenship and refugees. Thank you -- to immigration and refugees. Thank you.
