From the retail end of it, between every major centre in Canada from Vancouver to St. John's it is a flat rate. There's a consistent rate, just as there is for a standard letter. As you start adding on different legs the price starts going up. Yellowknife to Toronto would have one leg added. The rates will change for us going north. In the Northwest Territories if you can get to it by road it's one rate. If it's air stage, meaning the only way it can get in there is by air, it's a different rate and it goes by kilogram. I can't tell you, maybe it's after every two kilograms or also on size, that the price goes up. Yes, it is expensive, but the profit made down south with all the parcels covers the rate for the north and the remote communities; that's the whole idea of the combined. It's self-sustaining; one part is making the bigger profit. This little area may not, but within the profits it covers this, and they're still making a profit overall. The whole idea is to start generating more so we can provide the services.
