Thank you, Mr. Chair. I appreciate your having me here today. It's always a pleasure to question a fellow Manitoban.
Congratulations, MP Bezan, on your legislation making it to this stage. Having worked with you for the last year, I know this is something you're extremely passionate about and an expert in. We appreciate your leadership within our team and across Parliament on this issue.
I'm curious about some of the more financial pieces of this legislation. I understand there are some components of the bill that deal with agencies working together, like the RCMP and FINTRAC, etc.
Could you go into a bit more detail about how this legislation will improve Canada's ability to identify and act against the financial resources of bad actors?
