My final piece is the information around the employment at the Fairmont Southampton. I know that may be down the road, and that the unions are in agreement with some structure.

So the more parents test their st udents, the more t hey get the results into the system, the faster the school has a chance to get to an optional mask -wearing environment? Hon. Diallo V. S. Rabain: To answer that question, as …

My third question is still on page 6 and [relates to ] the Education Emergency Measures Committee [EEMC].
