My colleague Ms. Power mentioned that we have been recommending the 72-hour rule, wherein the vehicle has to be presented 72 hours in advance, prior to export.
Another key control U.S. Customs and Border Protection has is that the shipping manifest cannot be amended post-departure. In Canada, in some of the investigations we participate in, we'll see that a container will be listed with a load of dishwashers, for example, and then get changed to vehicles after the fact.
I will share that we work closely with the NICB in the U.S., which I spoke about. The U.S. is experiencing auto theft to a degree similar to Canada. Last year, they lost one million vehicles in the U.S., and we lost about 100,000 in Canada. They're 10 times our population. Similarly, the state of California lost 100,000 vehicles. They are 38 million people, so it's akin to the population in Canada. Most recently, in sharing information with our U.S. counterparts, we learned the eastern ports of Baltimore and New Jersey are starting to see increases in the export of stolen vehicles as well to some of the illegal trade routes across the Atlantic that we also experience.
The U.S. is in a similar place on auto theft.
