When it comes to the CATSA employees, they're subcontracted out, and this is actually much more efficient. It's actually deemed to be somewhere between 20% and 25%.
When I talked to Tom Ridge in the United States, he suggested that our model is much better than theirs. Really, CATSA is a product that came out of the 9/11 attack. We had to react very quickly. If there's one thing our American counterparts are saying, it's that they wish they'd taken on the Canadian model.
We regulate it. We have CATSA, which our government employees are monitoring and watching. This is one of the recommendations of the Auditor General. We have changed that to make sure it is done as efficiently as possible.
Now, we're not satisfied yet, because what we did announce, the $1.5 billion of extra money into CATSA over a five-year period, is to make sure that we do a complete review of CATSA, making sure that we are doing it as efficiently as we possibly can. We're not satisfied yet that we are getting not only the best procedures but also the best value for money. Perhaps we'll even look at the structure of it.
We're launching that review now and we're very serious about it, but your concerns are understood. We understand that Canadians are prepared to pay but they want an efficient system.
