I understand your point. Thank you.

I'm sorry again for cutting you off, but there would be no cost to the Government of Canada if 100% of women who qualified chose to use it up. If a portion of them had a pregnancy that went beyond the due date, they would have to wait until delivery, but there would be no net cost if it was calculated based on 100% of those women who qualified using it. There would be no additional cost from moving the 15 months around. Is that correct, based on the assumption that 100% of those who qualify would use it?
