Thank you, Mr. Chair.
We know that, under the national security laws in the People's Republic of China, all companies have to work with the regime in terms of transferring information.
Under those circumstances, were Canadian security agencies and yourself not concerned by the fact that CanSino could come looking for information here without us being able to do so in return? That is what seems to be demonstrated by the fact that CanSino was not able to send the samples that were supposed to be forwarded to Canada.
In other words, what were they looking for here and what did we gain from this exchange with CanSino?
