Thanks, Ms. Abbott.
It being 5:15, I need to bring the questioning to a close, because the committee does have other business it needs to consider.
I want to thank you, on behalf of the committee, for travelling across the country on short notice and for appearing before the committee and answering some pretty tough questions. Thank you for you presence and for your journey here today. I wish you a safe journey on the way home.
Go ahead very briefly, Mr. Bruinooge.

You might as well receive at least one during your chairmanship.
I would just like to make a point in relation to your comment that I insinuated that the AFN was not a legitimate organization. That is not the case. In fact the Government of Canada entered into this agreement with the AFN because we do see them as a legitimate organization.

Thank you, Mr. Bruinooge.
I'm going to suspend for about 90 seconds so we can go in camera.
