I would agree. I think a patent defence fund would be difficult. I think it's something worth looking into. The challenges and a deterrent would probably be one of the strongest pieces to it, but there would be a lot to work through. So I don't think it's an easy thing that can be done tomorrow, whereas I would agree that education probably is. In think the important part about the education is that it's really IP strategy, especially when you're talking about a software company that you represent. Often you don't want to put a patent; you don't want to go for IP, because you're then revealing your source code and you're revealing some of your competitive advantages, but at a certain point, you have to do it. I think you heard from Jeremy Auger from D2L that their entire strategy is defensive. They have patents strictly to prevent another lawsuit from coming at them. It's getting that expertise and that ability in Canada and having it available to earlier-stage companies so they don't make mistakes early on. That's really important.
