I just want to say that I think this committee, in terms of its reporting and asking questions, should be saying they support building economic foundations, which is something CIDA is talking about. This is exactly the sort of thing that Hernando de Soto was talking about in terms of supporting people and getting them into the formal sector, which is what we should be wanting. If they get in the formal sector, they can access bank loans and participate in the legal system.
I do think there's an additional step in which, through sharing risk and encouraging financial organizations, either crowding in or catalyzing private investment, if you've read in that report.... And thank you for reading it--you and my wife and my mother and two or three other people.
The point is, it is very important for Canada not to miss this opportunity. In addition to looking at the policy dialogue, this committee has a big opportunity of looking at this issue of development finance instruments. It's not a huge amount of money, but it will require some additional authorities.
