Thank you very much for the question.
I will start and then turn it over to my colleague.
It is important to know that the Montreal Port Authority has 275 employees and that approximately 25,000 people enter its territory annually. Obviously, every person who works for the authority or for one of its logistics partners—my colleagues will talk about the operators—receives a Transport Canada security clearance.
There is a logistics ballet, if I can put it that way, that takes place at the port. As you can well imagine, when a container arrives at one of our entries, at our trucking gate, a whole administrative process is triggered. However, we are not authorized to verify whether the truck is carrying the cargo indicated on the manifest.
It should also be noted that the information about what is in the containers is known to a very small number of people for a very simple reason: to make it more difficult for criminals to target a container for the purpose of committing a crime. Various barriers have been put in place, which makes it very difficult for us to intervene. So we have to rely on other partners or other agencies.
I have to stress that all of the necessary steps for a container to be eligible for export or for a trucker to be allowed to export occur outside of the port authority's jurisdiction. It is not up to the Montreal Port Authority to say that a given container can or cannot leave.
As we said, our focus is much more on the fluidity and the safety and security of the port sites. We are focusing on those activities.
