I think what has impacted me the most about this is hearing what people like Sharon Marshall from World Vision have said. She has said to us that this debate is distracting. We've heard other care agencies say that this debate we're having here in Canada is distracting and that this is an historic opportunity to help women and children and to save the lives of women and children.
As Minister Oda has said, presidents of organizations like World Vision, UNICEF, Results Canada, CARE Canada, Plan Canada, and Save the Children have said that it's time to focus on the hope and opportunity that this G8 offers us instead of having this distracting debate.
