It has to do with the connection between the program and the labour market development agreements. The two large agreements that my colleague spoke to you about both contain a clause called the “equality of treatment” clause. What it means is that, as money is flowed to provinces and territories, should any other jurisdiction see something that might be advantageous to them, they have the opportunity to apply for it.
As we design allocation models for anything connected with the workforce development agreement or with the labour market development agreement, we design the allocation in such a way that, should a province or territory see that as being advantageous, they could apply for it.
At the same time, however, the allocations were designed in such a way that those provinces and territories—provinces largely—that were most immediately affected had the lion's share of the allocation. There was a floor made available for smaller jurisdictions.
