Let me first reiterate what I said about the $250 million. I said the $250 million was the estimate that was put forward by the Province of Quebec. I'm familiar with the $250 million that was put forward into the budget document. That $250 million has been calculated only on the basis of removing the transmission and distribution profits that have been reported by Hydro-Québec and redoing the equalization calculation. Quebec calculates that would give the province another $250 million.
As you have just indicated, the policy should be extended to all crown corporations. If you are in fact going to remove transmission and distribution profits, it should be done for all crown corporations. And on Tuesday I didn't give a figure. I only said the $250 million figure may not be $250 million. I certainly didn't say in which direction it would be. I simply said that $250 million may not be $250 million.
Interestingly enough, I should point out there is a crown corporation also that's involved only in transmission and distribution, called BC Transmission, and like Ontario's Hydro One, it is counted as part of the business income tax base and not part of the natural resource base.
