Thank you very much. Yes, we do know what to do with those funds, but as my colleague from Revenue Canada said, it is still a long-term process.
I mentioned earlier in my opening remarks that a lot of the work we need to do to refresh our infrastructure is like the maintenance on a vehicle. It's actually more like trying to fuel an airplane in flight. We cannot stop processing payments, ensuring that Canadians receive their benefits, while we upgrade both our infrastructure--the platforms that these systems run on--and the applications.
We do have in place an application modernization project that is working towards clearly identifying every area of the infrastructure, as well as the applications that we need to work on, in order to do a complete refresh, but as my colleague has already indicated, this will take a number of years.
So in answer to your question, if you were to give us that money today, we would not be able to spend it all in one year. We could not affect the operations to that degree. It has to be done in a planned, methodical way over a period of time.
