Thank you, Mr. Chair, and that you to our guests for being here today.
One of the things we've been concerned about here is trying to find that balance between the rule of law, human rights, and natural resource development. We've been referred a few times to an Osgoode Hall law school report. I don't know if you're familiar with it, and you don't need to be right now. However, it highlights the violence and conflict in Latin America particularly, and it breaks down the way the violence occurs. It's no surprise, I guess, that local activists are the largest group impacted by the violence.
As I was looking through this, I was surprised to see that police and mine worker numbers were very significant in terms of the violent actions against them. Does this conflict typically have one side or two? Can you talk to the two sides of the conflict coin? If you don't mind being short in your answers, I have a couple of other questions as well. It doesn't matter to me who answers.
Go ahead.
