I think I may have mentioned this earlier, but in fact the vast majority of credit unions that are located in the rural communities, the smaller credit unions, would have access to the small business deduction serving that smaller market. It would be a relatively smaller credit union or caisse populaire. With ongoing and continued access to the small business deduction, it's unlikely that there would be a change in their taxable status. Again, the additional deduction primarily benefits the larger, growing credit unions.
