Mr. Speaker, the Egyptian government, in response to international horror at the attacks on Coptic Christians, has passed a law that makes a crime of religious discrimination or discrimination on the basis of gender or nationality, yet I think we all remain very skeptical that this would be anywhere near enough to protect the lives of Coptic Christians in a systemic response of increased religious intolerance.
I ask my hon. friend, the member for Pierrefonds—Dollard, what more can we demand of the new government in Egypt?
I hope she would agree with me that we should demand that international observers be present in the elections as they take place.
