You talked about costs. I'm sure your analysis was painstaking, but perhaps it isn't final. I would like you to be able to take Canadian expertise into account. I sat on the Standing Committee on Industry, Science and Technology, and I was really very surprised when they wanted to sell MDS Nordion, which built the Canadarm. It seems we in Canada tend to do that when we have expertise. It no doubt becomes quite costly and sometimes a little difficult to support, so we abandon it. However, you have to think of the entire scientific community. We are proud to be a leader in certain fields, and you definitely have to assess that.
