We'll be looking again both at the low-income cut-off and at HRSDC's market basket measure as the two measures that are there to make comparisons among provinces. We're looking at those measures, and they both show similar trends. Obviously we have some concerns with the methodology for the market basket measure, but we're more interested in showing progress than getting too hung up on the methodology. But we're certainly having discussions with Statistics Canada and some of our colleagues at HRSDC about the methodology as well. But mainly we're concerned that we're showing progress both by those and then by some of our more provincially based tracking mechanisms.
