Mr. Speaker, I thank my hon. friend for his fine intervention.
In the House on many occasions we have discussed genocides which have taken place around the world, from Armenia to Cambodia to the tragedies in Rwanda and Burundi.
Time after time we have said it is unfortunate, a tragedy, it is sad. What have we done to prevent genocide in the future?
I ask my hon. friend if he has any ideas on what the Canadian government could do and what he is prepared to do to intervene with the Minister of Foreign Affairs to make some constructive suggestions on how Canada can work with its partners in the international community to put forth ideas on collective actions that can be taken to prevent genocides.
