There's a lot that goes into where slaughterhouses are built. Some of that is where the animals are and if there is a supply there. I don't know if government can guess that better than the people who will put their money up into building them. We think that making sure that our regulatory systems.... Right now, some of our rules that are still hanging around since BSE make it pretty certain that new slaughter plant capacity isn't going to be built on this side of the U.S. border until we get our regulations aligned with the United States. That's the first step we need to address before we look at others like that.
