Thank you.
In recent weeks, the Islamic State has claimed responsibility for a number of attacks that targeted members of Afghanistan's Shiite minority, particularly the Hazaras.
There is a Hazara community here in Canada that is putting on a lot of pressure and doing a tremendous job. We have to help the Hazaras who are over there now. We are being asked to recognize them as a persecuted group, and so far that has not been done.
Do you know what is holding us back from recognizing the Hazaras as a persecuted group?
