Public Safety committee  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.

Public Safety committee  That's correct. We have investigators who are at the port of Montreal every day, working collaboratively with CBSA, Montreal police services and the RCMP. Our analytics team is across Canada, and they work remotely, running statistics and analysis to support confirming that the vehicles in the containers are in fact stolen vehicles.

Public Safety committee  No. We have investigators who are present in the port of Montreal, and no, they work quite collaboratively with CBSA and police services. That's not true.

Public Safety committee  No. That's not correct.

Public Safety committee  Okay.
