Thank you, Mr. Chairman.
I want to thank all my colleagues for their indulgence. Rather than asking a question, I would like to make a comment.
I am here today as a member of the Official Opposition, but also as Joint Chair of the Canada-Africa Parliamentary Association. We met with some of Your Excellencies a while ago. I can confirm two things: first, our continuing interest in Africa and our commitment to continue to try and convince any Canadian government, whatever it may be, to maintain a major presence in Africa and major cooperation with Africa.
Also, Excellencies, I would like to thank you for the series of recommendations you have provided today. I have noted them all, and find them very comprehensive. They will certainly be a good basis for our work in the association. Thank you very much.
