We're very committed to making sure that this amendment does two things at once. One is to protect the integrity of the Criminal Code. The intention of that is to prevent terrorist financing. The second thing is for it to have an enabling function. We don't want that first objective to overrule our capability to provide the humanitarian assistance that all Canadians want us to provide.
The protections that have been put in place are based on a couple of things, and you mentioned them earlier in your interaction. There's a public safety component of making sure we have a clear sense of what the terrorist threat on the ground is in a particular situation. The second thing is making sure that the organizations that are going to be administering Canadian funds are doing so with transparency and with the ability to manage those funds so that they're targeted toward the work they're intended to do and so that there are protections in place to make sure there is no slippage.
What the Criminal Code amendment does is protect you from violations of the Criminal Code in the event that you cannot avoid any financing of terrorist organizations through taxing or through service fees, the kinds of things that an organization cannot avoid in a situation like the one with the Taliban, which has the ability to control the environment. Canadian organizations cannot avoid some benefits flowing, but the amendment minimizes what that amount will be.
