I don't want to belabour the point. I'm going to move on, but I'll just make this statement.
We have an inventory that is crying out in many cases for investment. I just used West Block as an example because it's right here, but that's a project that will finish in 2020. Yes, as you say, there probably will be a new minister. I don't know if I'm going to be here in 2020. That's a long time away. In the meantime, we have so many other projects, and I see a decrease of 14.5%. The point is, and it would be for your consideration, that there has to be money reallocated to address many of the priorities that exist, including for heritage buildings, within the government inventory.
That brings me to my next point. You've made previous statements, and I don't necessarily take objection to this, that you see a preference, perhaps, for government not to own buildings but to do leasebacks and explore other possibilities. I disagree with how it was handled under phase one and I have great concern about phase two. I'm wondering if you could explain to me your objectives and those of the government with respect to the holding of federal property and where your thinking is at right now. What's your long-term vision on the holding of federal property?
