First, I would say that we always have to look at all of these programs together. There are many different programs we're helping people with: the CERB, the wage subsidy, the CEBA loans to small business, etc. The emergency commercial rent approach, I'm very encouraged by right now. After many weeks of discussion, we've seen provinces move forward with bans on evictions. That is starting to change the activity between tenants and landlords. We've seen a very significant uptick in applications in the last few days. We're now in a phase where I think there are very encouraging signs that this program can have a big impact on commercial tenants. I'm looking forward to seeing landlords and tenants continuing to work together in making sure people can get through this time, and that's what we're trying to achieve.
