Thank you, Mr. Hamilton.

Mr. Bush, Canadians are looking for reassurance that our border and immigration systems are secure, fair and responsive. I would like to ask about how Bill C-12 would strengthen those goals.

One of the key concerns for Canadians is the rise of transnational organized crime, including fentanyl trafficking. Can you speak to how the new inspection and enforcement powers under Bill C-12 would help CBSA to disrupt these networks more effectively at the border?
