Thank you.

Mr. Nikiforuk, we haven't heard an awful lot about acid rain as an issue around the oil sands. Acid rain was fought in the industrial areas of the Golden Horseshoe more or less successfully by withdrawing the SO₂ and the NO₂ emissions.

Are there not the same kinds of standards and issues applied to emissions in and around the oil sands production and extraction?
