Timelines are an important consideration. I think working our way through the “one project, one assessment” idea is quite important, and figuring out how that happens is important. I draw upon the work of the regulatory advisory committee that has existed for many years since the early days of the act. It created and brought together folks from government, provinces, industry, ENGOs, and others to have input into some of the changes they were able to make, and a lot of good work was done to hear those various views. Among other things we've looked for obviously is consistency between the decisions that are made and the subsequent approvals. If there is a difference there, that's a mixed signal that can cause delays and costs. The Manitoba project that was mentioned earlier is an excellent example of that.
