Well, action in regard to the EDC, the banks, and financial supports and guarantees, I think would be key things. I have had a number of projects in which I've had to take a deal that I'm winning or that I have in hand and push it to a Chinese company or a German company—I only take the subcontractor portion of it—because they bring in government relationships, finance, and performance guarantees.
I have to tell you that when I heard the phrase “trade with aid” and I read about the U.S. government helping—oh, God, why can't I remember the name of that country that had the big earthquake in the Caribbean...? When they gave a lot of aid and then they gave a lot of trade, I thought that was terrible. But social...is starting to integrate with our businesses, and a lot of the other countries are helping to build infrastructure. They are making sure their dollars are helping the countries in a good way by helping to fund clean tech. If we could take the money that we promised in Paris and put it towards infrastructure projects and other projects that by coincidence happen to benefit the destination country greatly but also bring our own technology and jobs, that would be great.
On the ability to get performance bonds and all of those things for clean tech for smaller early-stage companies, the Canadian banks won't do a deal even if EDC guarantees it. That's one thing that has to get fixed. It's ridiculous, and it doesn't happen in other countries.
I can tell you there are hundreds of thousands of solar street light systems being installed in Africa and the Middle East. I'm going to sell my controller because I'm the first technology in the world to have what I have, but I cannot bring Michael any solar panel business because I have to give it to China because they're providing the financing. We'll get 10¢ on the dollar in this country; the drag-along revenue won't be here.
