I can take a shot at that.
I know Canada has just announced a new strategic partnership with China, which is not that dissimilar to what the United States is doing also.
I don't know exactly what the parameters of this would be. Engagement and discussion between the Canadian and Chinese governments are absolutely essential. The key factor is that you don't want the Canadian government or the U.S. government to give away anything unless they're getting something in return. I think Michael explained that very well in his testimony. It's very transactional.
The question is this: How much do you elevate human rights issues, and what is the commitment for the western countries—the U.K., the United States and Canada? How high is Jimmy Lai and how high are human rights issues on the list of things that are important?
I think we would all argue that this should be higher on the list and that the people of Canada and the people of the United States and the people of the United Kingdom would all say this is very high on their list of priorities.
