I think that Canada's record on human rights is outstanding. It's been consistent across different governments—Conservative, Liberal. It's really one of Canada's strong points.
The Trump administration's commitment on human rights seems strong. You saw the President's personal reaction to the gassing of Syrian children. This was something very visceral for him.
The challenge in the U.S., though, is that if the U.S. is making big cuts to foreign aid—we're already talking about a 37% cut to the State Department—I worry that those cuts, even if they're not realized fully, will be very damaging to the U.S. ability to engage on these issues. That's not just at the rhetorical level. The President can continue to speak out, but it really needs to be followed up by monitoring and action.
