I would just like to mention that when I say pay equity is a priority, it is because, during their testimony, several witnesses talked about it in connection with the issue we are looking at. That is why I am saying it is a priority, because it came up several times. We need to take the time to really analyze it, and I echo Ms. Demers' argument that there is something we do not understand. We are told that what is in the budget at present is similar to what already exists in other provinces. We would like to look at this and understand it better. That is why I would like us to discuss it.
