I think it's important. In Canada, as I mentioned before, we have to start by looking at the areas of Canada outside of the major CMAs, the major census metropolitan areas, as defined by Statistics Canada. Those are not rural and they take in, as per your example of Milton, that kind of community, but outside of that there is a whole area of Canada that is basically small-town and rural Canada. I think “rural”, of course, has to be defined. We're not talking about purely non-town areas. We're talking about small-town Canada. We're talking about Canada outside and away from these census metropolitan areas.
