Canada and Colombia have had a dialogue on human rights for many years. I remember when I was ambassador there, I worked very closely with Mr. Mariano Tirado, who was appointed by President Barco at the time as commissioner for human rights. Canada helped put in place that institution and also helped train various members of the Colombian administration in the area of human rights. Subsequently, CIDA and Foreign Affairs funded a number of projects related to human rights. So there is an established basis.
But this agreement will provide us with a further opportunity. We have an annual rendezvous with respect to discussing the human rights situation. We'll be able to proceed to an assessment. I think it's great that we have an opportunity to review the impact of the agreement. We should probably do that for all agreements. It's not enough to just sign agreements; we have to see once in a while what the implications have been, what the results have been, and I think that will be very useful. It will provide us with an opportunity to discuss human rights not only multilaterally but also bilaterally on a much more extensive basis.
