I think it was more like 50,000, and it was also driven by a Progressive Conservative Gov't, IIRC.


I would like to know if there is a "cost" undertaking. I poked around the internet but couldn't find a source for you claim. I am also wondering, if it did cost "a billion dollars" what is the estimated monetary contribution to this country by those people(s).
