Madam Chair, through you to my colleague Ms. Blaney, the answer is yes. Certainly it remains the focus to introduce legislation that would create a new foreign agent registry as quickly as possible.
I also want to assure my colleague that there is a plan, and that plan is based on the four pillars that I outlined in my opening remarks. Again, just to be clear, they are prevention, protection, accountability and transparency.
I agree with my colleague Ms. Blaney that it is important we continue to strengthen the internal governance around the sharing of information and intelligence. The ministerial directives do succeed through governments and they succeed through administrations. The ministerial directive that I issued in regard to parliamentary foreign interference is a way in which we can strengthen those protocols.
To use your metaphor, Ms. Blaney, there are definitely waves, but the boat is being reinforced so that we can navigate those waters.
