Mr. Chris Forbes at the Agriculture and Agri-Food Committee

I'll start answering that, and I'll ask Ms. Walker to correct me if I make a mistake.

First, we had additional funds in our 2019-2020 budget that we had used to increase our capital budget. We had added approximately $10 million, in part to meet requests from our research centres.

This year, if we have additional funds, we'll use them to provide subsidies in response to the COVID-19 crisis.

We directed surpluses to that budget item last year, but that's not the case this year because we'll be allocating them to other priorities.
