I've seen many economic studies that have been done on this, and it's from them that I'm taking my information. Yes, if I could get it organized so that there would be an ethanol plant right in Canwood, Saskatchewan, I think the people of Canwood would be very happy, because there would be jobs there. But what I'm saying is that the overall effects of this will probably be to reduce industry in some other rural sectors. You cannot just take the gross gain in employment from a single plant.
