I certainly believe that this bill presents a Canadian tailored approach, but we also take a very tailored approach when it comes to defending human rights through our refugee program. Therefore, it's true that we may be exceptional in that regard, but I think it puts Canada in a very strong light when it comes to protecting vulnerable individuals who have been oppressed or tortured or killed as a result of the fact that they are women or young girls or religious minorities. This bill allows us to try to save as many lives as possible.
