I think that most of our members, if they were here, would say to you that if there's a difference between the regulatory authorities in provincial and federal governments, it would be that the regulators in the province are a little more aggressive. We do think there's just a lamentable amount of duplication; it seems a tragic waste of the environmental resources and the human capital we have that they're duplicating the process. So to that extent, for sure—this is a much desired bill in our membership and we've lobbied for it for a long time.
