I feel as though I'm welcomingly receiving charity from many of my colleagues today. I will take it.
Thank you very much for being with us again today.
I'll start with some alarming news that we have heard out of Afghanistan recently: that the Taliban is banning women from participating in education. This is devastating. It has been just over six months since Canada left Afghanistan. We have not met our obligations to the Afghan people in terms of refugees coming to Canada. While Ukraine is seizing all our attention right now, I don't want us to lose track of the fact that there are other humanitarian crises happening around the world.
Can you tell me what response Canada will have with regard to this, perhaps even touching upon how this intersects with our feminist foreign policy, since I know I didn't give the minister enough time to speak about that?
