Thank you, Mr. Chairman.
Thank you for appearing here today, Minister Kent.
One of the issues that is of note and that I'd like to have your perspective on is the issue of the constitution and its rigidity. We know full well—and in my election monitoring in other countries too I see that it pops up on regular occasions—about constitutional rigidity and how it impacts on the political systems of Ukraine, of other countries, and indeed even of Canada, with our Charter of Rights and Freedoms. We don't have Nunavut in our charter. It's so difficult to add the word “Nunavut” that it is practically prohibitive.
In the context of Honduras, I understand that the one-term limit of the president is problematic. As a matter of fact, even here in Parliament we have the question of term limits for the Senate, so we have the question of term limits.
I would like to know your impression of how much this has impacted upon the problem there and what is being done about remedial efforts to try to modify it. How difficult would it be? From your perspective, is a one-term limit for a presidential appointment for a country a practical thing to do? Is it workable, or should there be more than one, from your perspective? Can you help me with that?
