Thank you, Mr. Chair.
Mr. Alexander, I want to go back to what you were saying to Mr. Motz earlier. He wanted to know whether Russia was continuing to interfere in Canada, because, in a way, it knows that nothing will be done. You were saying that maybe we should start by expelling diplomats and that this is the only language Russia understands.
I find that interesting, because when we are in international forums, parliamentary associations, such as the Organization for Security and Co-operation in Europe, for example, at every meeting, we wonder whether we are going to allow Russia and Belarus to be present at those meetings, because they are members of the OSCE.
Some countries are saying that we need to keep diplomacy alive. If there is no dialogue, we'll never agree, we'll never be able to find a solution together. Other countries are saying that, no, they shouldn't be at the table, because all they're doing is using this platform to spread disinformation.
You seem to be leaning towards the hard line, but I'd like you to tell us more about what should be done to make Canada look a little more robust and to show that we don't accept interference in our democratic institutions.
