Thank you, Mr. Chair.
Mr. Minister, I don't think it's a surprise, knowing my previous profession, where my questions are going to go.
For the geo-mapping for energy and minerals program, renewed in August 2013, this year there's been an increase in spending for the program. I wonder if you could give an idea of how the program fits into what the government's doing for its resource development strategy and any details as to why the increase.
