Mr. Speaker, my question is for the Minister of Foreign Affairs.
Yesterday, the President of Burundi alluded to the threat of a double genocide when he said that something must be done about the similarities between the current situation in his country and what happened in Rwanda. Four hundreds Hutus, mostly women and children, are said to have been slaughtered last week by the Burundese army and by armed groups of Tutsis, in the Gasorwe region.
Will the minister tell us what the Canadian government intends to do following the plea for help made by the Burundi President?
