Shall we say that I have many things to say here, but there are two things I should perhaps mention.
First, I do think we should do the best we can to conclude what I would call a transit agreement, not a right of transit, with the United States. It would provide for two things. It would provide for the United States to recognize Canada's sovereignty over the waters, including those of the Northwest Passage, on the one hand. On the other hand, we would conclude a sub-agreement, insofar as the passage of American ships is concerned, which of course would have to comply fully with our regulations under the Arctic Waters Pollution Prevention Act.
Mr. Chairman, I have a second thing to say.
