It would certainly be very significant. Yes, I try to be cautious in what I say at all times. I would rather understate the impact than overstate it. But suffice it to say, a very significant part of the securities traded in Canada are in fact in the extractive industries. Having said that, much of the activity of those industries is domestic as opposed to foreign, so not all of that would be affected. But a significant portion of that is foreign activity, and it would have a negative impact on the economy of Canada as a consequence, and certainly a negative impact upon the welfare of those people who are working for those companies or invest in those companies.
