That's a fair question. The corporate and personal tax rates probably aren't competitive. If you stack us up against Atlanta, which has been at every digital media conference I've ever attended to talk about their outstanding programs, it is difficult to be directly competitive with some of those incentives.
We have a few intangibles here. Certainly in Atlantic Canada we have the highest number of universities per capita in North America, or so I've heard. We have an outstanding labour pool. We have, for our part, a lucrative—or, at least, it has been lucrative—R and D tax program that has certainly helped us be innovative in the innovative software work we do for global media brands.
We have, as I said, excellent educational institutions and a lifestyle that keeps people here. Everywhere I sell, there is a perception that Canada is a place of integrity with which to do business. I think that goes a long way. I think people understand our regulatory system, our legal system, and our tax system. They know that they can do good business with Canadian companies and get good value.
For my part, personally it's been better to be back home in Canada. I don't have to deal with visa issues and U.S. immigration. I came home shortly before 9/11. It was nice to be able to avoid the visa situation during those dark days of history.
I've been impressed by the quality of the labour here and by the support programs at all levels of government here in Nova Scotia. On the trade side, there is support from some of the ACOA trade programs and certainly from some of the provincial trade programs as well, and there is the federal R and D program.
