Thank you, Mr. Chair.
I'd like to focus again on enforcement, but this time as it relates to real estate. Money laundering is one part of sanctions evasion, which includes money laundering through Canadian real estate. The Cullen commission in British Columbia concluded that billions of dollars are being laundered through British Columbia, much of it through B.C. real estate.
You know, it's a significant asset class. There are just under $4 trillion in Canadian residential real estate in Canada, and there's been a lot of appreciation in that real estate in recent years, so it's a big asset class to launder money through. You mentioned in your testimony that you collect information on property related to sanctions, so my first question is this: How do FINTRAC, the RCMP and Public Safety collect information on the beneficial owners of real property in Canada?
