Mr. Peter Hendrick:
There have not been discussions on that. I am not quite sure where the Business Postcame up with those numbers. As Mr. Kelly explained, we are building out this infrastructure across the country. In many cases, we are connecting homes that other commercial operators may have said that they had infrastructure close by to connect to, but they are not connecting. What we are finding is that these premises are not getting connected. Therefore, we are not duplicating infrastructure and we are not looking to seek compensation against encroachment at this time.
