I can speak for my own organization. Amnesty International has done a lot of work, especially in these last five years. We have been focusing on this very worrying national and global debate about security and human rights, very much trying to underscore the point that you've just highlighted as well--the fundamental connection between security and human rights. Security that is pursued in disregard for human rights will of course always be precarious, and human rights will always be tenuous if they're not based on a firm commitment to security within national societies. It's one and the same.
We have in many materials--campaigning materials, brochures, and publications--highlighted the security certificate issue as a Canadian example of the fact that this isn't a debate playing out only with respect to Guantanamo Bay or other parts of the world, but an issue that confronts us as Canadians. We do need to take it seriously. It's a human rights issue that needs to be addressed. In addressing it, we hopefully convey a strong global sense of leadership as to what Canada thinks about the whole issue of security and human rights.
