I thank the member for Vancouver Quadra for his question.
Indeed Canada was always a leader in the field of non-proliferation. We can take pride in the fact that we invented strangulation of nuclear weapons.
The question the hon. member raises this morning is a very legitimate one. I am informed that it is up for consideration by the foreign minister who will make a decision in due course. However, there is no evidence in sight that Canada is going to change its traditional support for non-proliferation and to stop its fight against nuclear weapons.
