I absolutely support a humanitarian aid corridor that Canada funds and manages. I do not believe sending money into Afghanistan is a good thing. However, I do believe in sending, for instance, Doctors Without Borders and the Red Cross. Our Canadian military is more than capable of doing a humanitarian aid drop that Canada manages and controls. There are many people, like myself, who know the country. I've actually been there six times—four times with combat embeds. The humanitarian aspect is essential, but we cannot be providing money to the Taliban.
