Thank you for the question.
Indeed, we have a long history of working in northwest Syria. Those concerns of your constituents are the same ones we share. Our concern is that our assistance goes directly to individuals impacted by the long-running humanitarian crisis. That's why we work with experienced partners that have the systems in place to vet and track all the assistance that's provided. They're Canadian partners, international NGOs, the Red Cross and the UN. That's top of mind for us.
In terms of routes from Turkey into Syria, that's indeed been a big challenge over the last number of years, where the number of routes has been reduced over time to one. We've heard already today that the Assad regime has agreed to two additional routes being opened up. One of them is already being used by the UN today.
We have some confirmation now that goods are starting to flow through these new routes.
