Absolutely. I think you have markets that pose various challenges for doing business and also corporate social responsibility practices that are being adopted in certain marketplaces. Certainly, there are challenges in that respect.
What I think is important to note is that there's a lack of awareness of these opportunities in the Canadian marketplace for Canadian firms. There are also Canadian companies that are actively pursuing these markets but don't have the early-stage support, export financing and mechanisms in place to take advantage of government-supported project pursuits in different markets, for instance, Saudi Arabia, Qatar or the UAE, where Canada has a competitive advantage. Companies don't want to put in the upfront costs in terms of the prefeasability studies and that kind of thing, so it does put Canada at a disadvantage.
However, you have to also look at the societal changes that are happening. You have a lot these countries that are sending students to be educated in the Canadian marketplace, which at the end of the day is a big-ticket dollar amount for the Canadian economy.
There is affinity and there is progress in terms of relationship building. A lot of these countries are saying to Canada, come and do work. You're most welcome to come in and operate in the marketplace. However, Canada just doesn't have the leverage, the reach, to actually do that in a lot of cases.
