Thank you very much.
Chair, I'll be splitting my time with Mr. Genuis.
I'll be asking a couple of questions of you, Mr. Therchin. Thank you very much for your testimony. It was very moving and powerful. I can certainly say for myself, and I'm sure for many in the room, that we stand with Tibet.
With respect to the first two parts of Bill C-281, the first area is prisoners of conscience. Just in general, maybe not getting into the specifics of the legislation, do you believe that by shining more light on some of the atrocities that are happening and the prisoners of conscience being held by the regime in Beijing could be helpful to prisoners of conscience who are human rights defenders from Tibet?
