The world's changing at a tremendous speed. I don't think we can grasp how fast it's changing. So if you look to the long term, and given that we have to reinvest in this country with technology, my sense would be rather than just cut taxes let's take the depreciation rate down and spend the money in Canada and rebuild our manufacturing sector in particular. Because the profit might go someplace else; it might just move to another part of the world and benefit another part of the world. Let's benefit Canada. If there's no subsidy, there's nothing free about this. You have to invest your own money, so you'll do it wisely. But you'll do it in Canada if you're going to qualify for the depreciation.
