Mr. Speaker, as members know, Canada participates in humanitarian development work all around the world. We are doing that work in other conflict areas. We have situations where the conflict is so extreme that we have to depend on international partners to get basic human needs met there. I wonder if the member is suggesting that Canada only go to those countries where there is no threat or possibility of conflict.
Does she believe that Canada should only be present in Sudan as humanitarians, but should we then be participating in other countries?
As we have been told, many areas of the world need Canada's help and we are going to have to try to meet those needs in the best way possible.
Does she believe that we should only go to countries where it is safe and there is no danger? That is not necessarily where the greatest need is.
