Thank you very much.
I'd like to pick up on the community access program that was raised and the interesting explanation that was brought up earlier. Certainly representing one of the largest rural ridings in Canada, I know very well the importance of investments in this kind of infrastructure and what it means in terms of essential services.
In terms of the information that was brought forward, I am concerned that the capital funds are being used to top up that programming cut. So my question is, what is the situation in terms of capital right now in Canada?
I was visiting a community this past week that I represent and there was a very nice poster from Industry Canada. When I asked what the situation was in their community, they were told they have the tower but they're still waiting on whatever else needs to be done in order to actually have access. So it seems to me that perhaps some element of work has been done, but clearly, the access isn't there. I guess my concern is that this is a truly rural area, and Bell, Telus, and Rogers are not interested in investing there.
What is the infrastructure situation in terms of broadband in rural Canada at this point, and what is the plan, capital-wise or infrastructure-wise, in the next year? What kinds of targets are we looking at? That's perhaps irrespective of private interest, which, I can guarantee you, in areas like mine, except for maybe communities I can count on my two hands, the other dozens will not be seeing that kind of private investment.
