Okay. In the case of natural gas, we can do better with what we are exporting, consuming, and burning. There is work under way. Our companies are working on better technologies for deeper cuts of the natural gas liquids from the natural gas.
We're also working with some of the companies that pipeline product down to the United States to establish straddle plants, so that we can extract the liquids and then put the rest of the gas back into the system and continue it to markets. Frankly, our industry doesn't have a lot of use for the methane portion. Its best use is for its energy content.
What more could be done? We've worked very closely with the Alberta government to improve the extraction economics. We think it would be very valuable if the natural gas coming out of the north, natural gas being landed through liquid natural gas terminals, and natural gas coming from the United States all came through Canada and offered commercial access to the same extraction and resource upgrading.
I think there's a wonderful opportunity to take advantage of a Rocky Mountain hub to supply natural gas liquids and add 10, 20 times value to the natural gas component.
