Mr. Speaker, we would like to draw the attention of the House to the excellent job being done by Red Cross physicians in Rwanda.
Under extremely difficult conditions, these professionals are taking care of the wounded who manage to escape the slaughter that is going on in that country. These doctors often risk their own lives to save a population devastated by a civil war that has killed half a million people so far.
We are all affected by this intensely tragic situation. We cannot remain unmoved by the suffering of the men, women and children in Rwanda who are receiving essential care from these doctors.
On behalf of the Official Opposition, I want to congratulate the physicians of the Red Cross and thank them for the generosity and compassion with which they are doing their work.
