Deradicalization is an important effort that our government will continue to be committed to, because safer communities are better for all Canadians. Welcoming those who have escaped oppression and war, like those whom Rachael mentioned, is and has been from the very beginning an important part of our government's efforts. Whether it's been the welcoming and ensuring the settlement of Syrian refugees from places like Jordan and Lebanon or the welcoming of those Yazidi women and girls into our communities, these are all examples of our commitment to ensuring that those who face oppression find a safe home here in Canada. We are also working to reduce the violence that happens internationally.
