I'm with you; we are not in disagreement. I'm just saying that with respect to real estate, what do we want at the end of the day? We want the best deal for taxpayers. So let's not tie up the hands of the professionals at Public Works on the real estate side, tying them up with procedural processes that will actually do the reverse. Remember my rule. You asked me a good question, but remember the rule that we should always go out for tenders—always. But there are exceptions, and I gave you an example. When we're already in a building.... We've got people in Tim's group who know the real estate markets in every large city in Canada; he could tell you this morning what the going rate is for a B building of 4,000 square in Regina today—seriously.
