We are seeing some rapprochement currently between theCarney government and the Chinese authorities. It's not that we're opposed to warming of diplomatic relations, but you have to understand what that entails. Often, the very nature of diplomatic relations is to be able to address difficult, delicate or sensitive matters.
The Bloc Québécois has also introduced Bill C‑251 pertaining to forced labour. Don't you think that, if we pass this bill, it would also send a message to the Chinese authorities that Canada is serious? We could also move forward with motion M‑62, moved by my friend Mr. Zuberi. If we sent a more serious message about transnational repression, I think that would help Canada as regards China.
