Thank you very much, Ms. Mahoney. It has been very enlightening having you here.
Reading your bio, I have to applaud the work you've done. I appreciate that on behalf of all of us as Canadians and around the world. Many of the comments you made don't only apply abroad. They apply very much in Canada when we get into various other issues you touched on, but we don't have time to go there.
You talked about developing the base, getting that neutrality, if you're going to try to get democratic reform happening in many of these countries. But in countries like Iraq, where there has been such an effort to try to bring stability, and religion continues to get in the way, do you think there will ever be the opportunity to move those countries forward until they separate state and religion?
