I would submit to you that the reason we're having a problem with ITARs right now is the fact that over the past decade or more, the U.S. lost confidence in Canada's ability to step up to the plate in foreign affairs and contribute in a meaningful way. They also lost confidence in our ability to maintain security.
Canada always had exemptions from ITARs, and those gradually eroded. Those are coming back now because of our involvement in foreign affairs, and negotiations between Canada's Department of Foreign Affairs and the U.S.
So to say that ITARs are the bogeyman is misleading. I don't know whether you would agree with that or not.
