Question: Paul Steep - Scotiabank Global Banking and Markets, Research Division - Analyst
: Steve, can you talk just a little bit about within Interactive, how you're thinking about the performance of the contact center business relatively
within the mix? And maybe as a one-off, just sort of what the size of video is these days on a revenue basis, I think it help us track to where the
business is at on that side.
Question: Paul Steep - Scotiabank Global Banking and Markets, Research Division - Analyst
: Okay. Maybe on AMG, you flag in the document a little bit of -- or the MD&A, a little bit of a shift to hosted revenue, just checking that there's no
trend there, if that's just some of the normal quarterly fluctuations. Just since you called it out, that was all.
Question: Paul Steep - Scotiabank Global Banking and Markets, Research Division - Analyst
: No, that's good. Two last clarifications. One on setting and maybe the decision around the special dividend. Maybe talk us through the alternatives
you thought about as a Board. And then maybe just considerations for the sum and the amount. Obviously, it's -- there's no perfect science here
and then one fast sort of clarification.
Question: Paul Steep - Scotiabank Global Banking and Markets, Research Division - Analyst
: Fair enough. Last one for me, Steve, is just on the government grants. Just to clarify, so we don't end up maybe in the wrong direction here. MD&A
talks about $3.8 million for the year. Just maybe what the loading was, or how we should think about it Q2, Q3, Q4 in terms of which one that was
impacted? And is it all actually a reduction of operating costs because when you talked earlier, you mentioned free loans. Just that would be helpful.
