I just want to highlight one of the recommendations we mentioned earlier. Filing for patents is expensive. It's a complex, lengthy process. The Alberta Innovates voucher program is very interesting. I don't know if you're familiar with it. Basically what it does is allow pre-approval of spending for service providers to get IP patented. Again, it's a matching program. If the company looking to file for a patent puts up 25%, Alberta Innovates puts up the remaining three-quarters for the service provider—the patent agent or the law firm—and then the work is completed. It's an interesting model to look at. To the extent that there's more support for getting some of these things pushed through, I think that's a very helpful thing to look at as well.
