I can assure you that I work very closely with my American counterpart, Secretary Mayorkas, in a variety of forums. We are consistently finding ways to collaborate in the sharing of intelligence and the understanding of the risks that are posed by foreign actors who are hostile towards us and other democracies and the like. We collaborate in the Five Eyes. We collaborate in the G7. We collaborate in the cross-border crime forum, which I hope to be convening alongside our American allies in the very short term.
I can assure you that there is a very sustained effort to collaborate. As we are acquiring equipment, services and technology, we are applying a very rigorous standard when it comes to national security so that we can protect the Canadian interest in national security. By extension, that also has the net-positive impact of also protecting our allies, including the United States.
