Thank you, Mr. Chair. It's great to be back.
Thank you to the witnesses for making time.
On February 25, 2022, the Prime Minister stated that Canada would impose sanctions directly on Russian President Vladimir Putin and his inner circle of advisers. The new sanctions were in addition, obviously, to previous sanctions that were announced that targeted Russian oligarchs, their families, Russian banks, Russian financial entities and members of Putin's inner circle. How do these sanctions align with and complement those of our allies?
