I think it's a terrific question. Thank you very much, Mr. Trost.
The reason why technology companies flow back and forth between different industries is that their investments in R and D are so significant that often they need to be leveraged across value propositions in many different industries. Technology companies in general should be paid as a function of the value they create, and that's what their shareholders expect. I'll give you a couple of examples to support your point.
Hydrogenics is a company that has worked in the hydrogen sector for many years. They provide technology that is often associated with large-scale energy storage in the electricity sector. But you should know that they've recently signed an agreement with Enbridge, and that the Ontario government has recently included storage within natural gas pipelines in its long-term energy plan. Hydrogenics and Enbridge are going to work together to convert natural gas into hydrogen to store in natural gas pipelines so that when peak demand occurs, we can use natural gas, or we can convert that back into natural gas and make that available into the system.
Another example would be Pure Technologies, an Alberta-based company that has for many years worked in water infrastructure. Their technology has enabled hundreds of customers to understand defects within large water pipes. They've now built a new technology to test any possible weaknesses in oil and gas pipelines, so they've moved from perhaps a less hostile environment to a much more hostile pressurized environment, which is oil and gas pipelines. There are many examples of this.
