Thank you, Mr. Chair.
First of all, my apologies for my late arrival. I have probably missed some of your evidence, but I will rely on what I heard yesterday. Then, we heard from other witnesses who told us about discrimination against and persecutions of religious minorities. I was deeply touched and disturbed by the evidence they gave, which also came from individuals. The personal testimony was very shocking.
Given that we only have a little time in which to hear you and that I have probably missed some comments at the beginning of the session, I would like to let you speak while I listen. If you did not have time to fully express yourselves, if something is a priority for you and you want to tell the members of the committee about it, you can have all the time I have left. You can talk about what you want to see done, and make your recommendations to the Government of Canada.
Have other countries already taken steps or expressed positions in the international community with a view to having some cohesive response to your assertions?
