Yes, I would. I think if we're going to start learning about how strategic environmental assessments can help us at the project level, we have to bring it into the legislation. I say that in part because of my experience in Nova Scotia, where we did a strategic environmental assessment of tidal energy. It was an ad hoc process and that made it much more difficult to feed into project decisions afterwards. Part of the benefit of doing it was lost because it wasn't done under a legislative process.
