If I can shift gears a bit here, I'll open this up to our guest from EPCOR as well as you, Mr. Iannello. The solution here, essentially, is that somebody has to pay for the private pipe and nobody wants to do it, including the private homeowner. That's essentially my take-away from this.
We've heard some witnesses testify to the effect that the federal government should create some kind of program to offset the cost. Is there a reason that one level of government or another is better positioned to implement some kind of a program? My head goes to the municipality, because you actually can amortize the cost of this over a generation by charging increased water rates, but is there a reason why one level of government is better positioned than another? If it's a matter of paying for it, is it better to create a new program or would it be better to make private line replacement, say, eligible under something like the gas tax fund?
