I understand that what's been done and reported so far by the European Union and the countries I just mentioned is not enough to move forward with a statement to that effect.
Be that as it may, as a result of the report released by the Standing Committee on Foreign Affairs and International Development's Subcommittee on International Human Rights, as well as a vote in the House of Commons, a number of MPs have been banned from the People's Republic of China, including our colleagues Mr. Alexis Brunelle-Duceppe, Ms. Heather McPherson and Mr. Michael Chong.
Has the People's Republic of China given any reason for these travel bans? Has the Canadian government protested and responded to these travel bans and, if so, how?
