I don't think there was the question of ownership, although I'll defer to Mr. Sloan on that.

This would be again a reason for an official to come in and explain to you...because I don't think the ownership issue would be germane to the absolute liability limit imposed by the federal government. You know, Point Lepreau in New Brunswick has been operating for many years.

I may be wrong in this, but I think the ownership issue would be distinct from the absolute liability limit that would be imposed.
