I will answer your question, but I feel that Chris Aylward could then give you a better answer than mine.
The issue is that we got into a legal settlement. Normally, legal settlements are not taxable. We appreciate the position of the Treasury Board that this is a decision that must be taken by Canada Revenue Agency since it's a decision based on income tax law, but we know that a lot of discussions have occurred between the two parties in coming to this decision. From our perspective, at least the damages portions of these settlements should not have been taxable.
I really think, to do it justice, you may want to ask this question of Chris Aylward of PSAC. They've been in the trenches fighting on this very issue.
