Let's be up front about it: the only benefit is when you actually pay taxes. This is not like Bombardier, where we threw them eight times the money. Fifty million dollars is nice from the federal government for the well cleanup program, but for an industry, it's one-eighth of what we gave to one company in Quebec. That's a subsidy. I'd like you to outline the potential we could have in Alberta not only for job creation but for environmental cleanup, because $50 million and $250 million are nice numbers and will get a lot of people back to work, but they will only make a dent in a situation that needs action.
