Thank you.
I'd probably agree with Professor Charron.
I also think the importance of these kinds of reports and the kind of transparency Professor Charron is talking about.... She's absolutely right that the EU and the U.K. are far more advanced in this area than Canada. It's not just about measuring effectiveness, and by the way, when we talk about effectiveness, we have to stop and ask ourselves how we measure that when we don't necessarily even articulate objectives. It's impossible to talk about effectiveness unless you know precisely what the objective is.
There's also the importance of the human rights aspects, particularly when we're talking about targeted sanctions. You need to have this transparency in reporting in order to assess whether, in fact, the sanctions are targeting the appropriate person and whether the evidence upon which that sanctioning designation is based is still current, accurate and just.
All of these factors are vitally important, yet right now there is a lack of that kind of transparency.
