Mr. Speaker, I just read a quote from the minister. She said 11 times last year at a committee of this place that it was she, as Minister of International Cooperation, who made the decision.
She said in the House of Commons and again, I will repeat it for the member for Cape Breton—Canso:
--ultimately the decision to not provide funding was mine, as Minister of International Cooperation.
Let me say this. The minister made a difficult decision. She made a courageous decision. The minister made the right decision, to support the most vulnerable people in the world.
