The general approach to tax policy in recent years has been to try to keep rates low and to eliminate distortions in the tax system. The way to do that is not to have targeted tax incentives to particular industries. Rather, it's to try to make the CCA rates reflect useful life, as I said, and to keep the overall tax system neutral in terms of what investments are made, so that those investments are made for business reasons and not for tax reasons.
