I should like to ask a further question, but I ask the Committee to forgive me because I know very little about Canada except that my half-sister used to live in Alberta. It is possible that the states are different. Some states may be arable, while others are city-based. Therefore, that might help to explain this disparity in the reduction of smoking. What is the character of Saskatchewan that perhaps makes it more difficult to reduce the level of smoking? One might say that, from the level of smoking at which it started, it has moved a long way. It might not have moved as far as other states because they might have a different character. Perhaps we could have a discussion on this after Committee stage, because it is a point of detail.
