At CanWEA, we work jointly with the various First Nations in the country. Last year, we organized a seminar with the First Nations and the wind industry on how to work in partnership with those communities and how to work to identify those sites, where they are, where we can also produce wind energy and put it on the grid. Transmission lines are needed to transmit that power, that enormous resource that is in the north. Depending on the latitude, you have to consider the cold and frost. So there is some research and development to be done, but it's not impossible. The partnership with the First Nations is being carried out on a regular basis in all the provinces.
