The main cost is the pads, once the unit has been bought. Everything comes through the City of Ottawa, then Ottawa paramedics are the leaders of the program, and they are the ones who do the preventive maintenance about every three years. Recently we just changed all of our units. The shelf life there is long—10 years. That's what Ottawa paramedics are recommending, so every 10 years, we're switching defibrillators for new ones. Now we all have new units in every vehicle. I don't know the cost of the unit. That's paid through the city. We're just being provided with the unit. We have to pay for the pads when they're used. That's approximately $75.
