Thank you for the question, Mr. Martel.
There is a humanitarian aspect to this question.
On the Canadian business side, the Trade Commissioner Service has a presence across Canada. There are also trade commissioners who are not necessarily on the scene, but who play a role in helping Canadian companies find ways to contribute. This is done on a regular basis.
Canadian companies that are, or were, doing business in Ukraine and Russia are in contact with us, and we talk to them. It's part of our job to keep them informed of the needs in the affected countries.
We communicate daily with Canadian companies that do business with the Trade Commissioner Service.
