We had a reserve, but we have exhausted it.
Let me give you an example of what we did. You may have heard of NALD, the National Adult Literacy Database, also known as Copian. It was a database that retrieved all the literature on literacy and essential skills development in Canada, whether in English or French. It was an incredible resource. When there was no more funding, we could not maintain it. RESDAC took money from its reserve to retrieve this database and migrate it to the CDEACF platforms in Quebec. CDEACF is in charge of managing this database.
We did not want to let it go, because it's an incredible resource for literacy, training, and essential skills development. So we used some of our funding to save the database.
We then used our reserve sparingly and we have managed to keep at least one or two people in the last four years, but now we are really getting to the bottom of the reserve.
