Thank you.
In a bit of a different vein, earlier there was some discussion about getting help to the most vulnerable around the world. I read a very eye-opening book over the summer about development assistance. It was making the argument that one of the biggest challenges affecting the poor around the world is basic access to justice. It's something that's often outside our frame of reference, but for many poor people around the world, one of the biggest challenges they face is that their land can be taken away from them and people can be forced into bonded labour, and they don't have an effective ability to take that to a sympathetic police force. Maybe it's an issue of lack of prosecutors or a lack of police training.
I've become convinced through that and some subsequent reading I've done that this is a fundamental problem. If you want people to start businesses and to gain skills to be able to move forward, they must have some degree of certainty that when they make investments in themselves and their property, they're actually going to be able to hang onto those investments and not have them taken away.
I'd be curious to hear your thoughts on that and on what the Government of Canada is doing, if anything, around these issues of access to justice for the poor in the developing world.
