Thank you.
We had discussion earlier about Canada's relationship with its partners and allies. I heard agreement about from all of our witnesses that it is necessary to share information with allies, that the security needs of Canada require us to share information. It had been reported in earlier testimony at committee that Canada is by far a net importer of information. I don't remember the exact number, but the researchers would have record of it. I think it was something like a factor of 100 to one in terms of information that Canada receives in its sharing agreements.
To go back to this question of appropriate levels, I would assume it's reasonable to expect that Canada would have information-sharing agreements within government that are somewhat approximate to those that we rely on for information sharing in other countries.
Perhaps each witness could comment a bit on the reciprocal nature of sharing information with our international partners.
