Thank you. We've felt for some time now, as I think all the rest of the provincial and territorial jurisdictions across the country, that Canada has to play a lead role in laying out and then articulating exactly how they plan to meet our Kyoto emission targets as a country. We haven't had recent specific discussions individually as jurisdictions in terms of bilateral with the federal government, but there is an expectation that the federal government will lay out a well thought out plan as to how we might meet those targets. I think it probably will mean working with Ministers of environment, Ministers of energy in tandem. In past, that vehicle of joint meetings was used to work some of this through. Those talks have broken off. Canada signed the accord at any rate, but the understanding was always that they would come back to us and we would sit down and talk about a plan for meeting those targets. Thank you.
