Thank you for the question.
As you know, we have a strategy for Africa. I would also like to thank Mr. Oliphant for his work on this matter.
Regarding Canada's Africa strategy, we'll continue to build relationships with the African countries. There's no doubt about this. We'll also continue to implement Canada's Africa strategy. This means that, through multilateral partners such as the African Union, we'll support local leadership. The relationship isn't just about providing humanitarian assistance. That isn't the case.
Our strategy will include another component. We'll also engage in a dialogue about our economic relationships. Africa is the largest recipient of international assistance. However, some African countries are also quite rich in natural resources, for example. We'll continue to identify complementary sectors in Canada and in African countries.
I'll be travelling to Africa in the coming weeks. I'll continue to build our economic relationships with Africa, because some African countries are true powerhouses. We'll continue to seek opportunities to diversify our supply chains and our agreements with them.
