In terms of the current census and even the one before, nothing has been outsourced. All of the work is being done by Statistics Canada. There are no private sector companies involved, American or Canadian, in the actual processing of the data. It's being done by Statistics Canada. The only new partner in the relationship is Shared Services Canada, which is providing the infrastructure. All of its employees have been sworn under the Statistics Act, and they are subject to all of the penalties of the act if they divulge confidential information in an inappropriate way. So, there is no outsourcing.
