Okay. Understood.

The Government of Ontario reports that, at maturity, its IT consolidation that it's been working on is saving around $100 million annually, representing 10% of the total IT spending and between 20% and 25% of IT infrastructure spending. We hope to generate substantial savings due to the system consolidation.

Would you like to comment on that? Is there the opportunity to save taxpayers a lot of money through this consolidation?
