I think, Mr. Martin, the answer resides in the nature of Canada Post. Canada Post is a commercial entity. We are not a department of the Government of Canada. We are a commercial entity, where 95% of our revenues are coming from thousands of businesses across this country. We are in the process of delivering mail, 40 million pieces of mail, every day, to 14 million addresses, where the security of the mail and the timeliness of its delivery are the basis for why those businesses still use us. This is a very competitive business. We are competing against some of the largest and most successful companies in the world. A company like UPS is a formidable competitor. It is one of only six companies in the world that has a triple A rating. I would like to think that Canada Post has the same protection for its commercial information that my competitors have.
