I welcome Mr. Marston's suggestion. I think we should be looking at this. I also wanted to mention that it might be useful for us to look at the operation of the United Nations council on human rights as a whole. There have been some problems with its operations, not with regard to the Canadian report--that's the better part of their work--but with some of their other approaches. In fact there have been breaches of their own principles and procedures as a UN body, and I think it would behoove us to have a hearing on the work of the UN Human Rights Council. We are, after all, a subcommittee on international human rights, and we could perhaps make some recommendations with regard to the improvement of the work of that body.
