I have one more question on this, Minister, and I don't want to belabour it. These formulas existed before; this is not something new. This calculation was used, as you say, in transfer payments, other very important matters to Canadians, particularly the provincial and federal governments. I'm just curious as to why all of a sudden—I realize you didn't make up the number from thin air, but you did pull it from somewhere and included it in the formula in a way that wasn't done before. I'm hoping we'll get a chance to bring in experts—you know, bureaucrats, academics, and others who will answer too—but I am seeking your thoughts on why all of a sudden, Minister, this government thinks it likes this number over here. It used it elsewhere; it'll plug it in here because...why? That's my question: why. I hear you say it's....
Well, go ahead, please.
