I cannot say that we ever specifically discussed that. If you're asking me if I believed authorities in the United States must have had their own information and/or reasons for deporting Mr. Arar to Syria, yes. It's fair to say that in my own mind I presumed that the most persuasive evidence that led to Mr. Arar's deportation was what the Americans themselves had, not anything provided by Canadians.
