The way our emergency registration system works is that the provinces themselves make application to us for emergency registration. The Province of Saskatchewan was the first to do so. The Province of Alberta is the one we just approved at the end of last week. There are conditions on that emergency registration. There's a definition of “infestation”, and the province has to satisfy itself that this situation has occurred, and it has to look after things like distribution of the liquid strychnine. There are conditions that apply to Saskatchewan and Alberta, and if other provinces are interested, they'd have to meet those conditions as well.
