I would just add that one of the concerns is that with the export of raw bitumen, according to our NAFTA agreement, the amount of export that we build up to cannot be retreated from. So if the percentages we end up exporting get increased, that means we're not going to be able to draw back and do more upgrading at a later stage. So it's important that the accelerated capital cost allowance be available now to encourage those upgraders, so that in fact the value added and therefore the benefits remain in Canada.
