Just to pursue that, the main industry committee did a study of the impact of the dollar on the manufacturing sector, and certainly we heard concern there from manufacturers and anybody who exports or is particularly price-sensitive, I would argue—tourism as well, the cultural sector. Is there similar concern about the high price of oil, especially if it is an artificially high price, that it could permanently damage key sectors of the Canadian economy, like tourism, like manufacturing, that may afterwards have difficulty recovering? Are we putting too many of our eggs in one basket?
