We've talked to just about every country in the world about its refugee system. No country is immune to our comments. Certainly, our office in Washington is in regular dialogue with the U.S. government. I'm sure that just as we talk to CIC and CBSA regularly here, they speak to the Department of Homeland Security and State Department. So yes, we are in regular contact with the U.S. about their system, as we are with other governments. But again, the bottom line is that the U.S. system is a credible one; it's an experienced and established one. As is the case with the Canadian government, our channels of communication with the U.S. government are quite good.
