Thank you, Mr. Chair.
Mr. Bailey and Ms. Gojevic, thank you for being here to answer our questions.
In his speech last week to the United Nations in New York, President Morsi said:
Egypt would like to stress that the international system will not get fixed as long as the application of double standards remains. We expect from others, as they expect from us, that they respect our cultural particularities and religious points of reference, and not seek to impose concepts that are unacceptable to us or politicize certain issues and use them as a pretext to intervene in the affairs of others.
In light of that point of view, what do you think are the most effective steps Canada could take to promote human rights during Egypt's transition toward democracy?
