Mr. Speaker, the Prime Minister has taken a firm stand on the crisis in Libya.
His government quickly condemned the actions of Gadhafi, imposed economic sanctions, moved quickly to freeze the assets of corrupt officials, and announced humanitarian assistance for the innocent citizens of Libya.
Over the past 10 days, Canadians have been watching the crisis in Libya and have been concerned for the safety of loved ones in the country. They wonder how these people will be able to flee to a safe place.
Could the parliamentary secretary tell the House what the Canadian Forces are doing to help Canadians return to safety?
