To date into Vancouver we've brought in 18 containers and we've had 5 examinations.
Of course, at the very beginning you do get examined a little more, which is normal and we support that. But 5 out of 18.... And bear in mind that we're talking about paper towels and toilet paper, so there's only so much value in one container, approximately $10,000 to $13,000. So when you're hit with a $2,500 to $3,000 bill, it definitely adds up and deflates you a little bit in terms your ability to compete.
One remedy that we did touch on was to perhaps peg the value or the cost of the examination to the value of the contents. For example, a container of computer equipment might be worth a million dollars, but if we're worth $13,000 perhaps our examination fee can be a little different or a little less, something proportionate to the value of the container.
That would be one idea. I don't know how that will resonate with the CBSA but it's an idea.
