I'd like to highlight the possibility of making greater use of Canadian organizations to deliver aid. Currently, grants are awarded mainly to UN agencies, as it is a very easy process for Global Affairs Canada. Conversely, entering into contribution agreements with Canadian organizations is a slow and complicated process. That's why we do less of it and why we rely instead on UN agencies for more than two thirds of our bilateral aid. I think Canada needs to review the way things are done and simplify the process to keep the rules of the game fair.
