Thank you very much, Chair.
I thank you both for being here today.
My first question is this. Is Canada engaged in negotiations to prepare for a post-Daesh? For example, if we look at a neighbouring country to the west, Lebanon, we see it has a governmental system where the president is a Maronite Christian, the prime minister is a Sunni Muslim, and then the speaker is a Shia Muslim.
What I'm trying to get at is, if we see a post-Daesh, do we see Canada helping to work to stabilize the region with a stable government? For Lebanon, it's a government that's stable right now, but it's very fragile.
My question is, post-Daesh, is Canada engaging with the international community to have a stable central government?
