Thank you very much for that additional information.
I would like address a question to all the witnesses. Whoever feels they would like to answer or thinks they have the best answer should speak up.
Ms. Stoyles, you mentioned that the United States allows victims of torture and other atrocities to bring legal proceedings against those responsible for such actions. How does the process work in the United States? Could we use the same process here in Canada? You also said that the U.S. Congress has created an explicit exception in order to be able to sanction other states in that regard. Ms. Stoyles, could such an exception apply to cases such as the one involving Mr. Kazemi's mother, or the case you referred to at the beginning of your presentation?
