Thank you, Mr. Chair.
Good afternoon, Minister and senior officials. I am happy to see you again.
I would obviously like to talk about China. You know that China has a plan for the 21st century. There is talk of economic, technological and military dominance. Our allies also have plans and laws, but Canada does not.
You voted against the motion moved by Mr. Chong asking the government to come up with a robust plan to combat China's interference in Canada.
Considering the urgency of the situation, why did you vote against the motion?
