I guess this is what I really want to know: when you investigate other companies, are they free world companies?

The point I'm making is this. It's that the very companies that want to have change--and I think this has been put out quite well this morning--the very companies that are interested in doing the right things and that have been cooperative, quite frankly, with some of the things you're suggesting, come from...companies like the ones we know in Canada and possibly the U.S.

But do you ever investigate the Chinese? Do you ever investigate the Saudis? Do you ever investigate the other jurisdictions?
