Mr. Speaker, I thank the member for Trois-Rivières for his very compelling speech.
I agree with him about the government's credibility, as it has clearly grown complacent on that front and rarely chooses to be a part of the global community.
My colleague spoke not only of international obligations, but also of the need to honour national charters.
I would like the member for Trois-Rivières to explain why it is important for us to do so.
