Mr. Speaker, I want to thank the critic for foreign affairs from the Liberal Party for his intervention. I appreciated his support earlier today for the motion passed unanimously in the House condemning the violence in Ukraine.
He mentioned the young people and that they are a special generation. This generation has actually grown up outside the sphere of either a Soviet Union or a Russian czar. They had the true experience of growing up in a democratic country. I know that there are many watching here in the Chamber tonight. There are also those who have worked on the Hill as parliamentary interns through the Canada-Ukraine parliamentary program. So many of us have engaged with these bright, hard-working individuals who have such a hope and a dream of a free and independent Ukraine. I would ask if my friend from the Liberal Party could speak to those individuals who are watching and allow them to know that all of us here in Canada stand with them.
