Mr. Morrison talked about the work we've done on health education, but also on some elements to stabilize democracy and help build the capacity for democracy. My department, through our funding but with help from the Canadian Forces, the RCMP, and international partners, had started to work in Mali to build the capacity of the security sector and the security forces to do their jobs professionally, to do them well, and to do them in a way that protected civilians and respected the law.
The events over the last year were surprising. They were unfortunate in, as I said, a democratic state like Mali, but events of the recent week, I think, have started to turn things in the right direction.
