Mr. Speaker, I would like to take this back to who is affected. My colleague did a very good job of outlining the concerns we have and gave the example of what happened in Afghanistan and why it is important to clearly delineate what we are doing and how we can help.
I would like to know why he thinks it is so important for us as a country to immediately respond to what I heard personally, along with my colleague from the Liberal Party and the Minister of Foreign Affairs, to help those minorities that are right now needing basic needs met. We need to be supporting them as well as the huge number of people who still do not have their basic needs met, in places like Duhak, for water, sewage, and basic housing. Should that not be the first priority we have in front of us and the first priority that should be met before we talk about missions that are ill-defined?
