Sir, what I would say is this. I wasn't in the habit either of negotiating agreements with foreign countries or then signing them of my own volition. I agreed to sign that thing, and I have to say in hindsight that it might have been a wise thing not to have agreed to that, because the ambassador could have easily signed it, as occurred in the supplementary agreement. But I agreed to sign it because Minister Wardak asked that I do that and because we had a joined-up Government of Canada approach to the agreement back in 2005.
So I'm not pointing a finger at individuals. I'm just saying this was a Government of Canada agreement between Canada and Afghanistan in 2005.
