Thank you, Minister.

To follow up a little bit, I'd like to squeeze in one last question. In terms of Canada's response to COVID-19, I know that you are aware that the sector has asked that 1% of our federal COVID spending go to international development and the COVID response.

Could you talk about what we've done and perhaps indicate when the funds are new funds, and when the funds have been reallocated from within the Global Affairs Canada budget?
