Yes, it would be.
With the pilots and CBSA, I think they're just the wrong people to give the declaration to. I think it needs to be under CFIA.
Number two is that if there are proper facilities at these airports to detain horses.... I'm just talking about companion horses and sport horses: It could be a charter; it could be 30 polo ponies, for example, or it could be 30 show jumpers. If they have those facilities to detain them and to feed and water them, then yes, that is part of what we would like to see.
The problem is that a lot of these airports don't have the finances or the land to build these facilities. The only two in Canada that have facilities are Calgary airport and Toronto airport, but in Montreal, Ottawa and Halifax, none of the airports have these facilities, so that's our problem with the detention.
The other problem that we see is traceability. There is no traceability whatsoever. We depend solely on the information from the owner of the horse.
