I've seen various numbers. We haven't validated any of them, but we're talking about hundreds of thousands--not 10,000 or 20,000. We're talking about $1 billion to $2 billion worth. The majority of the contracts issued by the Government of Canada are for under $25,000--in that range. The dollar value, of course, is much smaller. But individual transactions--things that affect the majority of Canadians on a day-to-day basis--are in there. They're very much a part of my mandate.
