  It is shown that $exp(-2 Im(\int p dr))$ is not invariant under canonical
transformations in general. Specifically for shells tunneling out of black
holes, this quantity is not invariant under canonical transformations. It can
be interpreted as the transmission coefficient only in the cases in which it is
invariant under canonical transformations. Although such cases include alpha
decay, they do not include the tunneling of shells from black holes. The
simplest extension to this formula which is invariant under canonical
transformations is proposed. However it is shown that this gives half the
correct temperature for black holes.
