The other thing I wanted to touch upon is tourism funding. I come from a region of Ontario that's a popular tourist destination. Specifically, the Muskokas are north of my riding. I understand that vote 35 expedited some of the tourism funding, and I wanted to know if expedited funds would be able to market Canada as early as this summer. Can any of those tourism dollars allocated in vote 35 actually be utilized this summer to promote our tourism sector and create jobs in Canada through additional tourism?
