Yes, of course, we all are, and it's probably one of the motivating forces that got this committee going in the first place.

I want to ask you about the efforts that have been made. You've indicated that over 1,000 démarches have been issued by Canada.

I find the number of 14 countries that are supporting Canada to be disappointingly low. You've indicated that they have come forward of their own volition. Does that mean we are not constantly seeking support from other countries? What is the strategy here?
