It's actually locking down an existing benefit for a clear timeframe. Right now, there's no federal excise tax on natural gas as a transportation fuel. Coincidentally, there's no motor or road fuel tax on natural gas in most provinces. This is sort of a silent benefit, so that right now, when we're at maybe 1% of energy use in transportation, who cares? But as major fleets are making investments here in the multimillion-dollar levels, they want some certainty.
We are finding there's a lot of nervousness. Right now we're fighting a fire within one province that's decided—and we're talking about innovation here, but attitude is also important—based on literally one project in that province to apply fuel tax to natural gas for transportation. The short-sightedness regarding the benefits.... We understand that governments are strapped for revenues.
This is a very modest action. We did present this to the federal finance committee and we had all-party support around the concept of creating that period of investment certainty so that we wouldn't fall behind the Americans and then have to spend a huge amount of government money that really wouldn't be necessary if we got ahead of the game. That's really been our key message.
