Thanks very much, Chair.
I'd like to start by thanking everybody for being here.
Usually, I like to ask questions of every witness on the panel. You'll forgive me if I don't do that today, but I want to sincerely thank you for all your work in preparing the BIA and for your work on behalf of Canadians every day. Thank you for being with us here today to share your knowledge.
What I want to do is come back to Ms. Langlois, if I could, on the topic that was being discussed previously on the seizure of assets.
Could you speak briefly to what the desired impact is of the measure whereby the Canadian government can not only sanction and freeze those assets, but actually seize them and use them for the reconstruction of Ukraine? What's the intended impact?
