As I indicated in my response earlier, since our letter to the minister in early May from our president, we have had dialogue with federal officials about this issue. In recent weeks we've been encouraged by some of the announcements that have been made in terms of public statements around the need to address the protection of front-line workers and also some of the announcements with respect to the acquiring of both antivirals and vaccines. However, we still have not seen or heard of a national plan that specifically addresses the needs of those front-line workers in our municipalities that, we believe, are absolutely essential in terms of the implementation of a successful national pandemic strategy.
