The request many industry groups have been advancing for accelerating capital cost allowance.... Because they are not making, and we haven't been hearing, the argument that the capital cost allowance rate for manufacturing needs to be higher in order to reflect useful life, it hasn't come to the kind of dialogue we were talking about earlier, wherein they would want to try to convince us, based on a useful life argument, of their position. Instead it's more a question, I think—and they are pretty clear—that they would like higher CCA rates for manufacturing as an incentive.
