Mr. Speaker, our international reputation should be important to this government. Yet, it suffered a serious blow yesterday in Bonn. Despite everything, this government stubbornly clings to its made-in-the-U.S.A. policy of inaction.

Yesterday, it was Senegal. Today it is Germany. How long can this government go on tarnishing Canada's reputation internationally?
