Thank you, Mr. Chair. I'll just continue on with that particular question.

Thank you for the correction. It's not $1 billion, it's $780 million, and I've noted here that it's for 4,800 of your officers to have revolvers. So the correct numbers would be $165,000 per revolver in the hand of every Canada Border Service agent. Is that an effective use of taxpayer dollars, $165,000 per revolver per officer?
