I apologize I wasn't ready a bit earlier. That's a multi-part question, really. I'll try briefly to address each of the components.
First of all, with the respect to the importance of high-quality infrastructure, there's no question that's important to Canadian manufacturing because it can also improve logistics flows. This reduces shipping times and enables a just-in-time economy. We have certainly paid attention to studies that have tried to demonstrate where those gaps are, the magnitude of those being economic studies. There was a report released earlier this year by the Federation of Canadian Municipalities about the importance of infrastructure investments. Of course, infrastructure investment is very important to us as an industry because it consumes a lot of steel.
With respect to emerging markets and their infrastructure investments, again they have certainly invested heavily. Of course, part of that is they're investing for the first time in a lot of that infrastructure. In our country, we have a well-established infrastructure system, granted repair and improvement are necessary, but it's a little bit of apples and oranges on that score in terms of relative magnitudes.
Third, do we have to compete with those countries for selling, whether it's rebar, whether it's structural steel, whatever it may be? Absolutely; we have to compete with them every single day in our market, and we do so. That is why I also emphasized in my remarks that we're quite prepared to compete on a fair market basis and in accordance with market-based trading principles. What we can't compete with are dumped and subsidized imports coming in from other countries.
