Yes.
I more or less concur with Mr. Fadili.
The continent of Africa contains 54 countries, not all of which are at the same level. They do not all have the same challenges and they are not all as advanced. However, it is interesting to see—and this explains my earlier comment—that some countries are more advanced than others in business. They have the infrastructure, the will and the strategies needed for it. I feel that, in terms of risk management, the vision Canada must opt for is to establish solid relationships with the countries that are already prepared for them.
Geographically, it is clear to me that Morocco is in that position. Not only Morocco, but some countries in West Africa. When I refer to countries that have deep-water access to that corridor, meaning the West African countries with deep-water ports, the idea really is to create solid relationships, comprehensive partnerships between governments. Clearly, the priority must be with countries that are best prepared in terms of infrastructure and business capacity.
