The Canada Pension Plan was amended one or two years ago, to the effect that any amendment to the plan has to be, from now on...because it was not applicable before. If you improve the benefits, you have to charge the contributions that are associated with those benefits on a fully funded basis. The three or six percent he mentioned is something I provided. That was easy; I can replicate all the actual reports. They give all the figures to assess or determine how much it would cost to double the benefits, and a lot of people are surprised. They say how come the current 25% costs 9.9% and this would cost just 6%? It's because the 9.9% is not on a fully funded basis. A fully funded basis, done immediately, is less expensive.
