My question in relation to this generally is this. My understanding is that the border guards see these goods already. They see them. They don't have the power necessarily to deal with them, but my understanding is that under the plain view doctrine of general criminal law, if you see something that is illegal—bear with me—you could pull it out. Now is this the regime or the doctrine that you're suggesting be put into the CBSA's powers so that they would have the ability under the plain view doctrine to then deter and possibly destroy those goods?
