Thank you.

In 2006, during the unrest in Lebanon, the federal government had to evacuate some 15,000 Canadians, about a third of the Canadians living there, at a cost of $85 million. Some 300,000 Canadian citizens live in Hong Kong.

Has Global Affairs put a plan in place for if the situation in Hong Kong deteriorates and we need to evacuate Canadians? If so, what are those plans?
