Mr. Chair, the question of advance information has been at the centre of our organization since we created it. What we essentially put in place, with the help of partner organizations from within Canada and from other countries, is a multi-layered approach. We basically try to stop the threat before it comes to the continent. I must say our partners in the U.S. are very comfortable with that approach. They have a similar approach, and whenever possible we do it jointly.
In our case, it involves working regularly with other border organizations in very many countries in the world. It includes having CBSA officers deployed in very many airports all over the world to do interception. It includes the deployment to ports in other countries of our CSI program people to ensure that containers of real concern are scanned. It involves receiving all that information that we have discussed before.
Regarding airlines, we don't have it all. Your question was whether we are satisfied. We're not quite there, but we've moved a long way. We are getting information on containers from freight forwarders and carriers and importers, and we're getting the ability to reconcile it. Behind it we have the risk-scoring mechanism that digests all that, and behind that we have the normal thing that everybody has, which is officers, who, day in, day out, are looking at people and goods and ensuring that the country is protected.
We have created that multi-line, multi-border approach just to ensure that we are basically more secure.
