One of the challenges we encountered when we started to dig into this and look more at what was happening at the port of Montreal specifically is that it's actually a constrained space and the CBSA didn't have the facilities to inspect outbound cargo at the rate that was necessary and pull cargo. When you think about a port of that size and scale and taking a container off a ship and bringing it somewhere you can safely open and inspect it, it takes quite a bit of physical space to do that effectively.
I think the bill is a step in the right direction because it guarantees and requires that port operators create that space for the CBSA, but there probably will still be some physical constraints at ports in Canada.
We cannot allow outbound cargo to leave Canada uninspected. That was what was happening and that was what was causing this problem.
