In response, yes, there's a very specific process we're going through. Each institution that is at a truly professional level has its mandate clearly defined. Within that mandate, it tells exactly the story it's going to tell. We're telling the story of the Canadian Pacific Railway in its fight through the mountains, in its ability to move goods through the mountains, and the completion of the railway across Canada—that sort of storyline.
Garry in Cranbrook, for instance, is telling the story of luxury passenger rail travel, and he's doing a great job down there.
Exporail is looking at a broader aspect of the railways of Canada, and as I say, they were there at the time the railways were deaccessioning, to use the museum term, or scrapping, to use the railway term, the significant pieces as they changed from steam to diesel and from diesel to second- and third-generation diesel.
Have a clear mandate; have a clear policy on collections. You identify those items that fit within the collections policy and reflect the mandate. Then you look at whether you're going to be able to actually house and care for the artifact on the one hand. On the other hand, you say, are we getting near the end of that particular kind of artifact and if we don't take it now there will be no more? That's one way.
Another way to look at an artifact is if it's of particular technological significance. Exporail just received the first Green Goat prototype. I don't know if you've heard of the Green Goat. It's a Canadian Railpower Technologies Corp. development that uses a small diesel generator set to charge batteries, and it then uses the power from the batteries to power the traction motors to move the locomotive and the cars. This technology is much less polluting and much more fuel efficient. So here's a substantial increase in both pollution reduction and efficiency. The prototype is only one. Do you preserve it or not? They were able to do so. This sort of argument goes back and forth within the museum, within the institution, with the railways all the time.
So, yes, we are aware and have policies, which I think Garry can confirm.
