Mr. Speaker, I think what is wrong with this picture is that the hon. member does not know what is going on.
Earlier today the Prime Minister gave a speech in China in which he was very clear on the importance of the rule of law. He spoke to the rule of law and the independence of the judiciary by saying that “moving to the rule of law carries with it the subordination of all social, economic, political and individual behaviour to an agreed set of codes and regulations”. He said that “no one can be above the law” and that “rules must be the common property of all citizens”.
That was a very clear statement in favour of the importance of the rule of law in human rights in China which our Prime Minister was in a position to deliver.
