Thank you, Mr. Chair.
Five minutes is very short.
First of all, I'd like to thank our witnesses for being with us today. Certainly, I'd like to thank you, Dr. West, for the work you do and for raising in particular the humanitarian context in which these things are happening. I think sometimes that does get lost when we start to talk about the laws. We are not doing this in any context. This is not happening in contexts in which it is easy to work. This is happening in contexts that are very difficult, so thank you.
I'm going to start by asking some questions of MSF, which was the very first organization I ever volunteered with, so it has a special place in my heart. I was 19, so it was a very long time ago.
I read the brief you provided to the committee. In your brief, you refer to the fact that the current authorization regime in Bill C-41 may also pose security risks to Canadian humanitarian staff working for organizations like MSF. You spoke a little about that in your testimony. Can you elaborate on that for me, please?
