Mr. Speaker, I thank my hon. colleague for his comments and his question.
The people of Ireland obviously have heart, compassion and concern for all the victims of this tragedy in their country. It would be my hope, as I know it is the member's, that Canadians would be proud of this government in reversing its decision and showing compassion and heart and showing that it cares for all the victims of this tragedy.
I sincerely hope the government is able to do that.
