This was where you would basically get the parties to stop fighting in order to allow children to be vaccinated. This was amazing work. It took a lot of time. But again, it worked. You could move in and actually create peace. Now, it was temporary, but still, people sat back.
Again, from my days working in the Balkans, I mentioned the Canadian embassy as a meeting place. We had together people from the Balkan countries who were previously fighting. They came together and they were talking about how to ensure that polio didn't cross over from Kosovo into Montenegro. How do we ensure this, or how do we ensure that?
These were people who were belligerents, but who found a safe space within the Canadian embassy, and they talked. It was amazing to watch this happen. We got out of there thinking that we helped create bridges across some big gaps. I think that's where Canada can lead.
I'll just leave that with you.
