Mr. Speaker, all I can say about the Syrian regime is that it is a state sponsor of terror. It is not part of the solution, it is part of the problem. It has created the conditions in Syria that have allowed ISIL to flourish. We are taking on ISIL, because that is menace right now to the entire region, and we will deal with Assad in due course.
We have to, of course, root out ISIL, and we are going to provide conditions at some point, not Canada specifically but the international community, so that peace and human rights can exist once again in Syria.
