Thanks very much.
Since I have a very limited time, I have a couple of quick points. First, we have some concerns about clause 156—Mr. Casey alluded to it—and the reality of offsets where there are provincial programs in place. You've agreed to provide a list of these, but do you have any plans to discuss this with the provinces? It seems to me that our veterans are certainly not getting rich on these pensions and they need all of the support they can get.
The second point I wanted to raise is that there seems to be a consensus among the government members that there is a need for expedience to get this particular part of the budget bill passed. Would it make sense to separate it out so that we could deal with it more directly and effectively, rather than making it part of an extremely cumbersome budget bill?
