In terms of process, and I have argued this consistently with the federal government in our representations to the federal government, projects like these should operate and be run through the existing research funding mechanisms: the tri-council, CFI, and other sources that have, I would say, a vast experience in how to manage and operate large funding programs such as that. And that would continue to be my recommendation in the future.
