I would agree.
Mr. Bergeron, I recommend that any legislation or any public statement by any Canadian government, politician or official remain utterly silent on the matter of ransom in all circumstances anywhere. It provides greater flexibility.
You raised something that I wanted to get back to. I've heard it raised in various situations, and I think Mr. Oliphant mentioned it a moment ago. I think the hostage-taking of Canadians because they're Canadian has been extremely rare. The Canadians who have been hostages were largely in the wrong place at the wrong time. They were rich, were from a rich country, were from a western country and were available, and they were taken. I honestly see very little that we're doing that would paste a sign on Canadians around the world saying, “I'm a Canadian. Take me.” That would be very unlikely, in my view.
I see that the chair is waving at me, so I will stop.
