Mr. Speaker, I thank the hon. member not just for his intervention, but for his continuous work for many years on this file.
I, once again, would like to encourage all our colleagues on the government benches to take the time to speak with their constituents, to speak with the thousands of Tamil Canadians who they represent so they can understand the anguish, the horror of what is taking place in Sri Lanka.
I am sure once they speak with Tamil Canadians about the current situation, they will find it within their hearts to speak with the Prime Minister, with their colleagues, to convince him that we must do more, that we must engage our diplomats and have them engage their colleagues in the Commonwealth, at the UN and that we must do more than the $3 million announced today.
