I think that in our case a lot of it is the type of infrastructure. Also, our municipalities have a working relationship with the contractors in the province and work very well with them. Those contractors will take on the work they can do for the season, because it is a limited season, and they will expand.... If they know they're bidding on projects in May and they know that they have this amount of work to do, they'll find the people and the equipment to do that work. But they plan for the season, and when the season is a lot shorter than they expected, they just can't get it done.
