I think so. There's considerable debate in Canada about the fact that we continue to lag behind our U.S. counterparts, and in the transportation system we saw in the 1990s that the transportation sector was one of the major contributors to Canada's overall productivity improvement. Since then this has levelled off, so from a transportation perspective it is one of the reasons we are putting a lot of emphasis on how we can be more innovative going forward. I would certainly recommend that you continue to focus on this as a part of your study.
