That is a very good point, although we have heard from the minister that it was dealt with by a letter going from Canada to Panama. I think on balance--I'm sure my Conservative colleagues would agree with me--if you have an anti-crime agenda, then you have to walk the talk, and it would certainly take more than a letter to deal with that.
But thank you for that. I wanted to come back to Panama's refusal to sign a tax information exchange agreement, because of course that's the other issue. If we're not dealing with dirty drug money laundering in the bill itself, it's worrisome to all of us who believe in a solid legal tax system that the government is refusing to sign a tax information exchange agreement. That should be a matter of some concern.
I just wanted to get that on the record then, that Canada did officially approach the Panamanian government, and there was an official refusal.
