Mr. Speaker, my question is for the Acting Prime Minister. As the fighting between the Tutsi rebels and the Zairian army continues today around the Goma airport, the humanitarian workers in that city are getting ready to evacuate to avoid being caught in the middle. Some ten Canadian aid workers, including five Quebecers, were to be evacuated in a land convoy to a safer location.
Can the Acting Prime Minister give us an update on the current situation in Zaire and tell this House if humanitarian workers from Canada and Quebec are currently safe?
