Finance committee  I think the short answer is that it's not coming along quite as well as we might have hoped. A new market is a tough place because you have to put a lot of pipe in the ground. In a place like Nova Scotia, as you're well aware, it's rock. It's expensive to get that pipe in the ground, and you're working with customers who don't understand your industry or its benefits.

Finance committee  Thank you very much, Mr. Chairman. Let me join with my colleagues in thanking the committee for taking the time to hear us today. We appreciate that very much. Briefly, let me introduce the Canadian Gas Association to you. We're the association that represents the industry that delivers natural gas to Canadians in their communities.
