International Trade committee Well, thank you. I'm enthused. I'm looking forward to coming back and reporting back. I appreciate all the members' questions. Thank you very much, Mr. Chair.

Martine Irman
International Trade committee It's a fairly nascent organization. I just know the recent appointments of the chair and the CEO. We will be looking to partner with them, as we would all other new crowns. The Infrastructure Bank is another one. From my perspective, it's going to be about getting to know each ot

International Trade committee Thank you very much.

International Trade committee Thank you for your question, honourable member. I will answer it in a general way. In the recent budget, steps were taken to measure results. I don't remember the exact amount; I have the information in my notes, but I have several pages.

Martine Irman
International Trade committee It's $250 million? Wow, that's good. We took steps in this direction. What we are looking at is a business sector. We will determine parameters to measure the results and the number of people we help. As for the details, I will ask Mr. Daignault to come back to it.

International Trade committee I'll let David jump in for a level of detail, but absolutely, there's a product profile that meets that need.

Martine Irman
International Trade committee I'll defer to Benoit on that, but I just want to say on your outreach point that it's done in so many ways. It's private sector partnership. It's other crown corporations. It's local chambers. It's awareness and sharing. It's also with the other crowns. We have a very good referr

International Trade committee I'm here representing EDC—and not TD, my current employer—and I can tell you that the board has some very prescribed sets of policies. In the event that there are conflicts of interest, we would recuse ourselves. I would, as would any of the other board members who might express
April 24th, 2018Committee meeting
Martine Irman
International Trade committee Absolutely, and it's fairly thorough. It was part of the onboarding process. I did that with my employer, and with EDC it was very much part of the recruitment process. It's a fairly rigid process for all board members, and we adhere to that. With respect to your 2020 question,
