Good afternoon, Ms. Mourani.
When we started negotiating an agreement with RBH and Imperial Tobacco Canada Ltd., one of the terms was that neither the companies nor the government would identify the amounts of money that were then paid under the agreements as money that was to be specifically allocated to fighting contraband.
The negotiations provided for the money to be divided among the provinces, first. Second, it was put into the government's consolidated fund so the government could decide what it would be spent on.
