Our annual budget is about $700,000, but if I had one recommendation to make to the minister, it would be to start filling the positions in small craft harbours that are not filled. And this is not bricks and mortar, this is bodies. I mean the chiefs who have retired. The brain drain at small craft harbours is incredible. In the last couple of years good people have gone mostly because of retirement, but P.E.I. has been without a chief now—we've had an acting chief—for almost a year.
