Mr. Diotte, thank you for asking that question. You probably remember that Canada was one of the countries, with Germany, that asked for a G7 statement very strongly when novichok was used. Certainly I've been at the forefront. You know as well that we're looking to amend the chemical weapons treaty to make sure that novichok will be part of that, and we will continue. I think our colleagues in Germany have said that they don't want to make that a bilateral issue. They want that to be a multilateral issue.
I think we should all be concerned. It is abhorrent to see that states would be using chemical weapons against civilians. That is why at the time, in conjunction with our German colleagues, I did call for the G7 to stand up and speak up, which we did. I think you've seen throughout the year that Canada is doing a bit more, consistently, whether with the European Union, whether with the G7, or whether with the Five Eyes. Certainly we'll continue to do so and speak with one strong voice when we see egregious violations like that of international law.
