Yes, I do think it ends, speaking not just for ourselves but also on behalf of the other distillers. I think they feel very disheartened. This is not the Canada they stand for. I think we're all brought up to treat people well and to do our best, and with the idea that if we do good things it's not that we're doing them for a reward, but that there might be some recognition. However, when that recognition goes to big multinationals that are just that much more sophisticated, I think if you asked most people out here, they'd say, “Well, they must have had contacts in government.” That's a cynical stance, and I always hate that portion of it, but I don't know how else to explain it. You have people doing the right thing who are asking for really nothing other than to be allowed to continue doing the right thing. It's hard to explain.
