I might just add to this that the footprint of the applied research that's going on in colleges is a very small portion of the overall investment that Canadians make in research. The investment on fundamental research is in the order of between $2 billion and $3 billion a year in post-secondary. We have something in the order of $50 million or $75 million of that coming into the college system, so we don't feel as though rejecting a project is putting that entire system at risk.
