Chair, I'll try to go very quickly.
Of course, we'll send the information you requested. Different statistics get batted around. It depends on whether you're talking about exports of goods alone, or goods and services, but we'll provide you with those statistics going back some time.
I have no new news on the appointment of a U.S. ambassador to Canada. There is a name, a woman from North Carolina—her name escapes me for the moment. We can come back to you on that. I don't believe a hearing has been scheduled.
On the trilateral agenda, as in my opening remarks, I tried to say that it's another area where it's too soon to tell. The key trilateral file is NAFTA. Depending on how NAFTA goes, I think much else will roll out. I did say that defence minister meetings are continuing. I think energy minister meetings are continuing, and there's a potential for a foreign ministers' meeting. On concrete files, work continues on a single-window approach to customs procedures. We're not quite to the point of “entered once, cleared twice”, but we're trying to get there, and that kind of trade facilitation measure continues.
I mentioned that borders and energy are two areas of continued co-operation between Canada and the United States, and that includes Mexico because it has recently liberalized its energy sector. That's an area where there's continued potential for trilateral co-operation.
On security, think of opioids; think of transnational crime, such as trafficking and human trafficking. On those kinds of issues, we can expect to see continued co-operation. Mexico and the United States in particular have deep and ongoing collaboration on security issues. There is the new U.S. Secretary of Homeland Security, Secretary Kelly. General Kelly's previous job was head of SOUTHCOM in Florida, looking after the military aspect of Central and South America. I think you'll see continued close collaboration between those two countries and Canada as well because of the spillover effect.
Then, finally, you will see regional co-operation continue for the same reason that I mentioned. Secretary Kelly is very interested in it. The northern triangle countries of Central America and the challenges they pose to the United States and to Canada in a wider regional security sense, continue. Canada, the United States, and Mexico will have an ongoing interest in collaborating on addressing those challenges.
