I can say a few things about the development program in Mali. In terms of financing, it's as Mr. Gwozdecky said. We are the second-largest provider of development bilateral assistance in Mali. For Canada, it's about our fifth-largest partner, looking outward, so it's in the top 20. The spending is in the order of approximately $125 million a year, and it's focused in some of the critical areas, such as the provision of health care, maternal and infant mortality being one of the more positive stories to tell. It's also focused on food security and agricultural production, along with a number of governance-type pieces, such as working with internal audits and accountability within the government. Those are the large areas of priority. I think, as was just stated, that there is a stabilizing benefit to some of that development work in terms of social capital in Mali and not seeing further erosion in that space while the government struggles to face the broader security challenges.
