Well, I would agree with you. Sometimes it does feel as though we have a very big bureaucracy.
That said, what struck me about what you said is that you were very articulate on several points as to why this must proceed. I'd like to touch on one thing.
You might well be aware, as I think you may have heard in prior testimony, that the United States is close to putting a deal in place; there are a few administrative arrangements, I believe they were called, to make that happen as early as next month. What's the disadvantage for Canada to not play in that pond? I think you said one of the reasons was that everybody else is doing this deal for this very strategic country. From your standpoint, how does that disadvantage Canada? Let's talk about our country and why it matters to us.
