Mr. Speaker, it is not a question of what the government hopes; it is a question of what the government is doing about it.
It is clear that for Russia a NATO dominated force is out of the question. For France, a key NATO member, Russian involvement is absolutely essential. The Prime Minister says that Russian involvement is hoped for. Other NATO members are speaking up.
Will the Prime Minister assure the House that Canada too is speaking up in favour of a truly international force?
