In this particular study, I haven't done it that way, but I have done that in many studies. We've looked at literally hundreds of public policy initiatives, and there's no question. You're right. The bigger the ticket, the more for me, the more resistance. But you start out with such an enormous amount of headroom in terms of public support for this.
I've also looked at how support sheds as a debate ensues about a real issue. It's so strong to begin with here that even allowing for the very predictable decline in support as these kinds of issues become more real, there would be an enormously strong constituency in support of this.
It was also notable that the support for this was strongest among the most educated and sophisticated portions of the public, and those were the travelling public. I wouldn't discount it as a Pollyanna-ish, “That would be great”. It was the things that people said they thought about. They understood that it would cost lots of dollars. In fact, they weren't nearly as sanguine about the fact that this would be run on a cost-recovery basis in the future. They still said they thought it would be a good idea.
That “yes” would go in a real public debate. That would continue to decline, but I still think you would find a solid majority of Canadians. Let me put it this way. I've come across very few examples of public initiatives that we haven't tried, that we've tested through time, and some that we have tried that scored this well with the public.
