There are a couple of things to say in response, Mr. Harris. We know that many of the drugs and the precursor chemicals used in their manufacture are imported into this country and that the source of those is often Southeast Asia and quite often China. I've already indicated that.
We are doing a great deal of work. I have the president of CBSA also online. I can talk about the work we've been doing over the past five years to restore the staffing and budget cuts that were imposed by the previous government under the deficit reduction action plan that they put in place.
I can also talk to you, if we get more time or at another time, about the excellent work that's going on, including our conversations just this week with the United States about re-establishing the cross-border crime forum, which enables strong collaboration between Canada and its closest ally and partner, the United States, in dealing with these issues, particularly the importation of opioid drugs.
