Yes, Olivia was there. When the invitation comes out again, I would urge all of you to take up the invite, because it was a great event. I think it's also important that we're able to touch base with our parliamentarians.
I want to direct my questions to Mr. Robert. I want to talk a little bit more about natural gas.
I think it's probably safe to say that we are tied to the States, whether we like it or not, and I don't think your industry would want to see regulations that would impede your traffic in the United States. Those are things that we must recognize.
The fact is that we're playing in a big sandbox; it's not our sandbox, unfortunately, but there are things we can do. I know that you've been a strong advocate of natural gas. You've put your money where you mouth is. You went out and invested in a number of trucks. You were one of the first.
I appreciate your information on Westport. It is an exciting new innovation and a Canadian company, but I want to just give you a little bit of time to maybe tell the committee.... You seem convinced that natural gas is definitely an avenue and an opportunity for trucking.
We're acting as partners. I appreciate what you do in your industry—you're a leader in that as well—but if government and industry were to act as partners, what would you tell the Canadian government in regard to what the necessary steps would be to move forward with this natural gas initiative? It's something you firmly believe in and it's something we could possibly lead the way in and develop more technology in, which would create more industry for this country.
