Thank you, Mr. Chair, for letting me speak. It is a bit late because I had a question for Ms. Armstrong who seems to know a lot about Afghan women. But I will address my question to Ms. MacDonald.
I do not know what the percentage of women is in the Afghan Parliament. Ms. MacDonald, you said that women are replacing men, their husbands. Is that correct?
I would like to know what your reaction was to the suspension of Mrs. Malalai Joya, who was also a member of the government. She was ousted mainly because she criticized the government of the country and probably Canada’s presence in Afghanistan.
