Q: Is this a good time to get into North American Construction Group? It seems to be stabilizing a bit, and wondered if its more stable trajectory is due to the recent blip uptick in oil/energy, or whether it's more company-specific? I note that in a comment last month you had said that its oil sands exposure was balanced by non-oil sands projects. What percentage, for instance, would projects in non-oil be compared to oil sands projects?

Adjusted earnings per share dropped to $0.52 from $0.55.

How would you rate the results as the oil sands are a key component of its success?

Thank you for your insight.
