I have already outlined some of the initiatives, particularly in the area of motor vehicle safety standards. We are largely harmonized with the United States right now, but there are some minor differences in about 40 motor vehicle safety standards at the moment. A simple one that I could offer as an example is the difference in bumper standards between Canada and the United States. Again, there is no real discernible reason why there should be a difference; one has a five mile per hour bumper standard and the other has a 2.5 mile per hour bumper standard. But if those were brought together, it would allow the product to be tested once; it wouldn't have to be tested twice.
I also made a comment in my remarks that I didn't get to, appreciating the point made in the committee's report on looking not only beyond our borders but also within our borders, and the need to have a harmonized approach to our regulatory regime within Canada. I guess I would speak to that in terms of the emissions standards you alluded to, with respect to different provinces considering California emissions standards—which have been a bit of a buzzword these days in terms of automotive emissions standards. Clearly, our view is that the best benefit for all consumers would be to avoid a patchwork quilt of regulation, both within Canada and North America, and to have one common emissions standard in place and one common fuel economy standard.
Those are a few examples of how these types of initiatives within the SPP, in particular, could assist our industry.
