Yes, but I would offer that our growth has certainly slowed in the last 12 to 18 months, largely related to the dollar. Two to three years ago, when the dollar was stronger, we had tools available to help us win new work and to be competitive. We have some major contracts with Nickelodeon and MTV that renew every year. We've been traditionally very, very competitive with offshore teams in Belarus, India, and China in competing for those same projects.
Two years ago we were able to do creative things with currency forwards, to lock in money at favourable rates and offer rate reductions to clients to help sign long-term contracts and to grow those contracts. All of those tools are gone from our tool kit at this point.
As I mentioned, we've been the fastest growing business in Atlantic Canada for several of our 12 years. This past year we've grown a tiny bit. This has been the year of slowest growth that we've seen in the life of the company. We have a lot of opportunities, we have a lot of proposals, but we lack some of the tools we used to have to clinch the work on the finance side.
So yes, I see as much opportunity, if not more, in the global market, but, as I say, there are fewer tools to help us lock those in and bring them home.
