Thank you, Mr. Chair.
Know that we are working very closely with all the CFDCs. They are very close partners. We are in contact with them regularly every year to discuss the issues they are facing. So we work with them a lot. Obviously, it wasn't our decision to reduce the number of CLDs. Given the situation, and without the role of the CLDs that no longer exist, we are increasingly looking at how our agency and the CFDCs can work together to foster economic diversification in the various communities. So our role isn't to replace the CLDs, but to work together to look at what impact we might have on diversification. We feel a responsibility for development in the various regions.
