Mr. Chair, I think the member is correct that if we measure success based on the number of successful money-laundering or terrorist-activity financing prosecutions we have in Canada, we may not come out with significantly high numbers. However, if we look at the disruption of criminal organizations or the disruption of potential terrorist events, where our financial intelligence may or may not be recognized—because it's not recognized in every successful investigation or prosecution—I think the disruption is significant, and I think the financial intelligence is critical to assisting our law enforcement partners in their investigations.
Certainly, money-laundering charges are difficult. They're difficult to prove and difficult to get prosecutions on, but in terms of my own level of satisfaction with my work, while getting a money-laundering prosecution is great, if I can assist law enforcement in identifying 12 victims of human trafficking and getting them out of a human-trafficking ring so they can become 12 survivors in Canadian society, I see that as success. Perhaps a human trafficker will not be charged with money laundering, but they will be charged with human trafficking, and we will save the victims.
I think it's the measure of success where, yes, Transparency International may have looked at the FATF measure, which is money-laundering and terrorist-financing prosecutions, but for us, we believe that while that's important, saving victims, getting victims out, avoiding terrorist incidents and disrupting organized criminals are as successful as a money-laundering or terrorist-financing prosecution.
