It's also a message I think you will want to hear. Nova Scotia is now part of your energy solution. For the past number of months we have been shipping the equivalent of 20 to 25 per cent of the natural gas consumption in all of New England. And, I believe we will make that number grow in the years ahead. As many of you know, the demand for this cleaner, more environmentally friendly, flexible fuel source is rising.
Natural gas is now the fuel of choice in New England.
But the long term conventional sources of this fuel are running down. That's where Nova Scotia comes in. Our supply of natural gas is rising - and set to rise even more in the coming decade and beyond. The magnitude of our expected growth is significant. We are a province with tremendous resource potential.
