I guess I am asking the question because I think most people would think, notwithstanding that it's not a formal treaty, that this agreement was something that Canada was wanting to have established with the Government of Afghanistan, the terms of which should be, I will say, our terms with agreement of the Afghan government.
So I'm a little uncomfortable with the fact that we would have asked General Hillier because General Wardak knew him well, and therefore they could have a conversation and sign it off. I say that because, first of all, I thought that was the job of our diplomats, and if they're speaking on behalf of the government, usually that's done by diplomats, not by generals.
So I guess my question is why was it General Hillier was allowed to sign that agreement when normally that would be the job of a diplomat?
