John Manley LiberalMinister of Foreign Affairs

Mr. Speaker, my colleague, the minister responsible for international assistance, has already announced our support to the tune of $6 million for Afghanistan.

Also, in the region, there was a major announcement of almost half a billion dollars in assistance for Pakistan, to convert Pakistan's debt to CIDA.

So, we are already in the process of announcing our support in a very troubled region.
