Thank you, Mr. Chair. I'm going to share my time with Mr. Hiebert.
I want to make a point first, and that is that Mr. Cullen has been misleading people--I don't know if it's deliberate or not--when he says this program is cancelled. Clearly we said we're going to assess the program. The reason a decision was made to stop taking applications is because it was anticipated that with the present applications the program would be fully subscribed.
I think we need to be clear about that. The program has been extremely successful, to the point that we anticipate the budget is going to be fully subscribed. That's why we ceased taking the applications.
I'll turn it over to Mr. Hiebert.
