Yes. You see, that's what surprises me. Any policy that we develop has to be now vetted by the U.S., and if they don't agree with it, they can use the consultation and arbitration process to hold us to what they view as consistently in line with how they believe the agreement was administered, which is, “These are our terms and you cannot go outside those terms”. It really compromised us a great deal. I think that's a concern many people have expressed in industry as well.
The question I have to this is with respect to the fact that this deal is so complex. Again, going back to the machinery of government, in your opinion do we have sufficient resources in the department to manage option A, option B, how it's calculated, how it's administered, how those tax levels are determined? Do we have the resources?
I know there was a concern raised by the Auditor General that there's a lack of strategic direction when it comes to human resources. There are issues around departmental resources. In your opinion, because this deal is so complex, does the department have the necessary resources? If not, should the government have provided additional funding in its budget for additional resources for this very complex deal?
