I maybe have time for one last one.

Why would the situation in Burma have allowed for Canada supporting it at the time, Burma being what it was then, in 2010, and not feel the same way with regard to North Korea now? It would seem that the situation in both countries, including access, if it warranted a commission of inquiry in Burma in 2010, would certainly warrant such a commission of inquiry with regard to North Korea in 2012.

See context to find out what was said next.
