Right now we're seeing a reinvestment of $800 million in the facilities at Chalk River to continue that legacy. We also see far more opportunity right now to seize opportunities in SMRs and other areas of science. I think we should continue on the path on which we have already embarked.

Thank you very much.

I want to thank our witnesses for being here today, for your time and some great information.
