Mr. Speaker, tonight no one in the House is questioning the resolve of all Ukrainians who desire peace and democracy in the Ukraine and of those of the Ukrainian diaspora here in Canada who seek the same. There is one thing everyone is questioning, including the Ukrainian diaspora here in Canada, and that is the resolve of the Conservative government, which my colleague made reference to in her comments.
Today, and actually since last December, the member for Wascana has been calling for unilateral action to send official observers to scrutinize what is going on, for providing expedited visas to victims who need to leave that country for their safety, and for targeting Yanukovych and his crowd with personal sanctions, asset freezes, and travel bans, for example, to push them to stop their anti-democratic behaviour.
Does the member for Parkdale—High Park agree that Canada should take unilateral action in pursuing these three goals to bring some solution and to show the resolve that Canada should have?
