3 CBSA Environment  Top 20 Ports of Entry (POE) process over 80% of the land border traffic;  Over the past decade CBSA has focused capital investment on the large volume ports of entry with a focus on the Designated Commercial Offices (DCO);  The majority of the CBSA’s larger DCO ports have been, or are in the process of being redeveloped and are functional and provide adequate serviceability;

4 CBSA – Current projects  Modernization and expansion of commercial facilities at: Pacific Highway – March 2012 Abbotsford-Huntingdon – March 2012 Lacolle – Summer/Fall 2013  Port Replacement Projects at: Prescott – March 2012 Kingsgate – March 2012 Aldergrove – 2013/2014  Completion of Residential accommodation at remote Northern Ports of Entry: Little Gold – October 2010 Pleasant Camp – March 2011 Beaver Creek – March 2012

5 CBSA – Challenges  50% of the CBSA inventory of smaller ports is over 35 years of age and can not adequately support new program initiatives such as the Doubling-Up;  Competition for limited resources;  Ensure that investment required to address the rust-out situation at the smaller and remote ports is undertaken without compromising the condition and functionality of the major DCO ports.

6 CBSA – Priorities  Address operational and functional deficiencies at the larger DCO ports; Lacolle, Emerson, North Portal  Recapitalized investment at the larger DCO ports; St-Armand or Philipsburg, Woodstock, Pacific Highway  Port replacement Projects: Pleasant Camp, Fraser, Stewart, St. Leonard  Small Port Replacement projects in support of the Doubling-Up initiative
