Thank you very much, Mr. Dewar.
We have always said that if we do not control the movements of terrorist groups in the East, the Congo will not be the only country affected, because this sort of thing crosses borders. We are talking about uranium. There is an ASADHO report on this. At the same time, the president of the association is in jail. The uranium leaving the country illegally represents a threat for the entire world, including Canada. We do not want to experience another Nagasaki. We do not want to experience another Hiroshima. In order to prevent that, we have to stop uranium from leaving the country illegally. I repeat: the president of that association is in prison.
In terms of helping women who are raped, there is only one thing to be done: Kagame has to be put somewhere where he can no longer harm people. The best investment for Canada is not necessarily to help women who have been raped. We have to stop the rapes from happening in the beginning. All of this comes from Kagame, so please help us. Help our fellow citizens in the Congo. Six million dead is too many! Implementing an anti-rape program is a waste of money. Bringing Kagame under control might cost a thousand times less than such a program.
With respect to the bill and the mines, I think we have said enough about that. We very much appreciate Canada's efforts with respect to the moral responsibility of corporations. I would say that this book does not really do me much credit. Everything about the Congo is in it—including the fact that the rebels were armed to take power. We know that the author has his own problems, but these are public sources that have been verified. The authors of these quoted sources are not subject to prosecution.
In closing, I would just like to talk about my colleague's report. It relates to the civil society. We talked about the fact that the civil society needs help, but the fact is that those who defend human rights are in jail. There is a report from Amnesty International. What civil society are we helping? The reports issued by the Catholic bishops of the Congo show that nothing is working and that there is no visionary leadership. The bishops' letter and the reports are there. Nothing is working in the Congo. Indeed, Ms. Arbour said precisely that in her April 8 report.
Mr. Dewar, one solution for the Congolese army would be that it no longer include foreigners. I like foreigners. The Congo welcomes foreigners. I cannot vote in the Congo because I am not Congolese. However, peace in Afghanistan and the Congo concerns me as a Canadian. We have the Canadian Charter of Rights and Freedoms. We want the values that made Canada prosperous to be established elsewhere—in those countries where we are active. The Congolese army is composed of foreigners; that is a known fact. We call on you, our members of Parliament, to help us. The CNDP is not a Congolese army; it is a foreign army. That is a documented fact.
