Mr. Ménard, I'll try to answer your first question, concerning the interaction between organized crime and industries, particularly in the construction sector.
It goes without saying that organized crime has to launder its money. In the past 20 years, the act has enabled us to attack that component. The act has evolved, but so has organized crime.
Money laundering involves three stages: investing the money, laundering it and bringing it back to use it for desired purposes. When organized crime invests money outside the country, in countries that permit it, the money is not available to the criminals. In recent years, we've noticed this attempt to launder money in companies or industries, which affords more immediate access to the money. The verb to commingle is used to characterize this way of doing things. In other words, money to be laundered is mixed in with legitimate money, which makes it more difficult to detect illegitimate money.
