I can say we're in constant discussion with the Department of Foreign Affairs and International Trade. They actually seek feedback because they want to continuously improve their service, and as you mentioned, they have opened some new offices abroad. One thing we're certainly very happy about is that they've also opened new offices in different regions in Canada. I know, for example, they just placed somebody in Windsor, and they just placed somebody in Kitchener. This is very good, because they're closer to the local business community and can establish connections with local businesses in these different areas. When you go abroad, as my colleague indicated, different companies have different capabilities.
I think we can say in some cases that there are some trade commissioners abroad who might not necessarily have been able to provide the level of service that some companies were expecting, but they could also come back to us and say that they've seen some companies go out there, and they could have tried to help them, but the companies weren't ready and actually hadn't done their homework.
There are some growing pains when you're trying to grow into new markets, but I think overall the trade commissioner service is an excellent service, and we actually refer members to them all the time. If you know that you want to go into a specific market, the service can be a valuable resource. A few bad examples may have been reported to you, and that's often what happens, but I know they've been very helpful for a lot of our members in many areas.
