Thank you, Mr. Chair.
Thank you to our witnesses.
I have four questions. The first two have to do with Mexico. Last week on the news, we heard about the swearing in of the country's new president, Pena Nieto, and his visit to Canada.
You mentioned the beyond the border initiative, which concerns the perimeter security and economic competitiveness of Canada and the United States. My first question is why was Mexico not included in the agreement.
What's more, Mr. Linklater, you said something very interesting about Mexico. An important aspect of electronic travel authorization is that it will give Canada greater flexibility to lift visa requirements. Could that flexibility apply to Mexico, which is an increasing source of tourism for Canada?
