Thank you, Mr. Chair.
My question is for both witnesses. This committee, in 2018, did a study on women human rights defenders, and recommended that Canada be a place of safe haven when human rights defenders need to get out temporarily. It may be permanently, but very often it's just a very quick, immediate place of refuge. Typically, human rights defenders, journalists and others want to return to continue the fight.
About a year ago, our government implemented a human rights defenders refugee stream of 250 per year. I can well imagine that journalists and others are part of that particular stream. We're doing it through third parties. Are there ways in which Canada could improve that process and potentially make this scalable and a model for other countries as well?
I'll start with you, Mr. Weimers.
