I don't know if the speed of return should be of concern to Canadians. We are going to make a major investment to get a very large return on this investment, but I don't know of any business situation where you would invest $50 million and get an immediate return on your $50 million. I think you'll start seeing a return in terms of results and deals being formed. But if you take, for example, a company that was going to build a plant in Saskatchewan, it may take three years to build that plant. It may take 10 years to realize a return on that investment in that plant. I think it's unrealistic to expect an immediate return on investment. However, we should be increasing the amount of committed foreign direct investment in Canada, which we would count as being a return on our investment in the agency.
