You mentioned earlier as well that if you had more time or more notice.... I think we've had seven or eight months' notice right now. We know that there will be another rural mail route that will stop receiving mail tomorrow, or next week, or the month after and so on and so forth, just purely on the fact that it has increased since they first appeared in November.
So what measures have we taken, other than the temporary green boxes? Do we have enough green boxes that we can employ them immediately? Have we talked to other potential...? Have we done any surveys or risk assessments in other rural mail routes?
Actually, I also spoke with the CUPW people, and they mentioned that they were not involved in the safety study for which you have hired experts in this matter--to look into the ergonomic as well as the safety issue.
The final point is, could you maybe comment on your meeting with the Prime Minister and the minister? Did the meeting touch on rural mail delivery, or was it something else? Do you anticipate that one of the solutions may be that the government will use their dividend of $80 million this year to maybe pony up and subsidize some of the costs that are required to maintain rural mail delivery? You mentioned to me previously, as did your staff, that it is a costly way to get right-hand trucks and so on and so forth. So maybe for part of that $80 million, the government would part with some of it and maybe partner with you, half and half or something like that. Was there any discussion about that?
