Larry was adamant that there will be no delay in Alberta and said there is no point in any stakeholder even proposing a delay because it such a proposal was a "non-starter" and won't happen. He told me during the discussion that investors will not invest in a jurisdiction where the government does not follow through with what it says it will do and he referred to the Jan 1, 2001 date as a firm commitment of the government entrenched in the legislation. I agreed with him that this was absolutely the right approach and told him that the Government had Enron's full support on this issue.
