There are a number of actions and possibilities.
One is, knowing that the status of visiting forces agreement is being negotiated, to ensure that human rights are a precondition for any agreement to be finalized.
Second, it's important that we support grassroots organizations, like Karapatan, in documenting human rights abuses because the world is actually not aware that there is a war going on in the Philippines. Bombings are taking place. Extrajudicial killings are happening. Journalists are being suppressed. Most recently, a group that is promoting a peace negotiation or asking the government to resume the peace agreement that was negotiated years ago was arrested.
I think it's imperative for Canada that in any of these negotiations with the military or with the Philippine government human rights are part of the deal.
