Thank you, Mr. Chair.

I have a question with regard to the lapsed funding with Growing Forward 2, and where, if the funding lapses, the provinces can apply up to 25%. I just want a bit of an explanation so that I understand correctly. Are the programs normally spent in upwards of 75% if they can apply for up to 25%, or is that maximized each and every year?
