I think that's totally wrong. I will give you two examples: the 10-year health accord under Paul Martin provided stable increases in funding for 10 years. It was health, but it could have been infrastructure. The second is the gas tax transfer. That's clearly long-term funding.
Mr. Atkinson and Mr. Carlton, in the remaining minutes, could you explain to us why, notwithstanding Mr. Wallace's comments, long-term funding is critical to you and whether you have any ideas for mechanisms through which it could be delivered?
