The quick answer is that speeches are important.
We call out the President of the United States, but meanwhile, the United States is the only country that took the floor on April 8 at the UN Economic and Social Council to say that electing China and Cuba is wrong, and it is the only country that said nominating the Islamic Republic of Iran is wrong. Canada was silent.
Canada could have spoken. Canada spoke there on April 2022 when it came to the issue of Russia and Ukraine. They chose silence this time. This is not Canada's tradition. This is not living up to the Canadian charter. This is not living up to the vision that Mr. Carney expressed in Switzerland, where I live.
We need to see actions matching words.
