Monsieur Coderre, I would say the principal reason we see more adoption in the U.S., and certainly in larger economies, is the fact that we're naturally more risk averse here in Canada. Our industries are more susceptible, if we make the wrong decisions, to failure, given their relative size. If you're a transit property in a small community in Canada and you operate 50 or 60 buses and you make a decision to go to an alternative technology, the risk may seem higher relative to a large transit property like Los Angeles. What we do see in Canada is a small amount of risk aversion, that they might not be as willing to jump in with both feet. Maybe that's cultural.... I wouldn't say it's cultural as much as we're just a smaller country and we have less capacity to jump into these technologies.
I would say, in addition to this, that despite the fact that the United States, since Richard Nixon, has been seeking energy independence, there has been pretty solid support for alternative fuels in the United States, given their concern about their dependence on foreign oil. So they have a number of well-established programs, through the Department of Energy and others, that have been long-standing and that have supported the adoption of alternative fuels. They're grassroots programs at the municipal or state level, and people are making significant inroads into alternative fuels.
I would say it's somewhat cultural and somewhat just the attitude towards alternative fuels.
