Again, I have to underscore the importance of how we have no authority in that country. We leverage the law enforcement network within a country such as Brazil, to use your example, to assist the RCMP in advancing that investigation, but at the front end, we would be assessing many factors with respect to that investigation. Is there a nexus back to Canada? Is there a criminal offence?
As well, there are protocols on kidnappings that we work on with DFATD. Every case is unique.
I think the most important thing that I can give you is that we have no authority in those countries, but we work with that law enforcement agency. Oftentimes in many of the countries where we have liaison officers, the law enforcement capacity of that country is limited, so they often look to the RCMP to provide assistance. We are not forceful in our regard there. We're typically Canadian: we offer assistance. Oftentimes, we're taken up in that regard.
