The movement at the governmental level, even to the point of showing that there is a focus and a real addressable willingness for us as a nation and as a government, as a sector, to look at and address the competitiveness issue, sends the right directional statement to business leaders. Business leaders look at that. It's a factor when we make a decision as to whether we stay or go. Even a directional change is beneficial.
