The U.S., just because of the size of their treasury, has the capacity to have more enhanced technological capabilities, in some ways. But I argue with them that if you look, per capita, at what is happening at our borders, certainly in this last year we have increased our border security and the prosperity measures more than the U.S. has, if you look at it that way.
Having said that, they are going very extensively with increased surveillance capability. We've talked about helicopters and manned aircraft, but there are surveillance cameras along remote sites, and they're looking at unmanned air vehicles. They're really moving that up. Now, they're moving it up mainly on their southern border, for obvious reasons, but on their northern border, which is our border, there will be increased surveillance and increased capability.
We've talked with them about that, and they will not be hesitant at all to share information if they should observe something, whether it's on the flights or with their long-range surveillance cameras at the border. They will pass that information on to us. I don't like it to look like we'll necessarily be piggybacking on what they're doing, but in fact we will be.
That won't diminish our determination to make sure that we are as technologically advanced as possible, but I see that as an assist. There's good information sharing, on both sides of the border, between our various officers and the posts. And them having increased technological capability to survey those fairly large expanses of uncovered border will benefit both sides.
