Thank you, Ms. Damoff.

I am not completely aware of what Statistics Canada does with this information or how regularly it reports it. I still think there would be value in putting a requirement into Bill C-21 legislation for an annual public report, without specifying exactly what should go into that. I think a statistical component would be important, partly just to demonstrate that CBSA is completely confident of its ability to acquire these statistics and to demonstrate them themselves. That would just be a basic test that they would be under.
