I would like to add that when I was president of the International Centre for Human Rights, at one point I was trying to convince the Peruvian government, under Fujimori at that time, to make some improvements in human rights, and his officials came back to me saying, “You're not doing this in Canada, so don't preach to us.”
While I think we are better than many countries, we have to correct many of the shortcomings. For example, people internationally know about the Arar case, they know about the cases raised under Judge Iaccobucci, they know about the security certificate problem. We have a difficult time in doing democratic development around the world unless we are shown to be serious about still improving on the problems we have, because they're raised against us when we try to raise them with other countries.
