I want to ask a question of the real estate association.
I've heard you on the compliance issues and the paper work. Your comments about nitpickiness with things that really don't contribute to what we're all trying to deal with here were well said.
The compliance will have to be there. There's obviously a huge risk of money laundering in the real estate market. If compliance were streamlined—I think that is probably a safe way to put it—how can we ensure that real estate agents are actually doing this work? I knew my real estate agent when I bought my house. He knew who I was and didn't really have to do much background checking. Of course, I still signed all the papers and went through all of that.
I'm from the GTA and we had the attorney general from B.C. here, and homes are selling within hours, in certain cases. How are we ensuring that the agents themselves are actually getting to know their clients? How can we feel secure in their doing that if the compromise is to somehow streamline the process as well? Have you given any thought to that?
