I wouldn't describe it as investing less in Canada. As the portfolio has grown to $539 billion, we have continued to grow our investments in Canada. I said we have 16% of the portfolio with exposure to Canadian assets, which, at $539 billion, would correspond to $80 billion to $90 billion in assets. Canada continues to be an important market for us and continues to be a market in which we look for opportunities, but we are a global investor.
We are an investor that looks for opportunities all over the world. As we think about investing at CPP Investments and we think about maximizing return without undue risk of loss, taking into account the factors that impact the funding of the plan, we also believe, as I mentioned in my opening remarks, that it's important for us to diversify away in some ways. One hundred per cent of the contributions come from the Canadian economy. These assets are solely for the beneficiaries, and diversifying the assets to the global economy is in the best interest of the contributors and beneficiaries.
We still, as I mentioned, have 16% invested in Canada, which is a material portfolio. If we look at other funds around the world.... For instance, in the Norwegian fund, they will completely diversify away from Norway to ensure that 100% of the assets are invested outside of Norway to provide that diversification, but we still view Canada as an important investing market for us.
