Mr. Speaker, the parliamentary secretary obviously did not see the Globe and Mail this morning.
Reasonable people want a reasonable answer. We know officials from CIDA gave KAIROS the green light. It met all the stated criteria for funding. It is effective and efficient at delivering international aid.
I will reiterate. We know why this cut was made. KAIROS is committed to the things the government cannot abide. Its ministers have confirmed that.
What exactly can it not abide: equality of women, economic development, clean water, democracy building, human rights or peace? Could the government tell us?
