Thank you, Mr. Chair.
Thank you, gentlemen, for being here and sharing your thoughts with us.
Mr. Chant, you recently returned from Bangladesh. Can you tell us in some detail what you saw there generally in manufacturing facilities, and in particular where this terrible tragedy happened? Tell us what you think about the local working conditions, and elaborate on what kind of assistance the Government of Canada gave and could have given in that kind of situation. Tell me also, if you can, about what you think the Bangladeshi government's obligations are under both domestic law and the International Labour Organization standards, and whether or not you think those are being met.
