Thank you, Mr. Chair.
With respect to that particular exercise, one of the big faults, if I can put it in those terms, is the sharing of information. In particular, there was a software that was used. We're getting down to the nitty-gritty here, but the software was supposed to create links that would be portals to allow businesses to understand what the governments on both sides of the border were doing to ramp up the border, to close the border. That software, to put it diplomatically, just was not working properly at all.
That basic government communication function of getting information out to the widest possible distribution, to tell us in very basic terms what the governments are doing and what we need to know to get our product across the border, and when we can get that product across the border is just not being performed.
Then, of course, there is the issue—and we discussed this earlier in my comments—of the need to have a sense of when there has been a shutdown, when there will be a ramp-up, what goes across first, and, when we're identifying people, who can go across first, and, when we're identifying goods, what kinds of goods can go across first, and how much and using what methods of transport. These are real nuts and bolts kinds of nitty-gritty issues, but, frankly, they just haven't been worked out yet.
