The department doesn't guide or intervene in the CRTC's proceedings. They operate independently of the government. They're an independent regulator. Certainly from our perspective this work the commission is doing will not only inform the committee, but will inform the department as well. Having heard from all these witnesses, and having looked at what's going on in the terrain, they will come up with some recommendations. They will come up with some decisions around this area, and this will inform us.
