I believe a check of the national inventory by Environment Canada will illustrate that we've essentially been holding our own in emissions levels across this country, but I immediately would then factor in the increased production that we have put out underneath that same level of emissions. So that would turn it into an intensity target, which I know is a contentious issue, but the bottom line here is that agriculture again has been leading in finding manoeuvres to cut back. But without proper support as we move forward, we're also at risk of seeing some of these gains lost because we will have no-till soils that may have to be worked in the future just to gain back fertilizer opportunities. Because we have seen such a rapid increase in costs on some of our other fronts, farmers are going to maybe have to do things that they've never contemplated before.
