Up to this point, we had to apply for the labour market opinion. I believe it's now called the labour market impact assessment. That particular process took over six months, and there was a great deal of disparity in what the per-application fee was. In some cases it was up to $1,000 per artist that you were bringing in, and in some cases it was $250. There was a great deal of confusion and lack of clarity with that program, and that was about the time that the whole issue of the foreign worker permit was being discussed in Canada. But as Kathi said, there's never been any abuse of it in the cultural sector.
