Mr. Speaker, over 200 artists from Quebec have signed a letter from playwright Michel Marc Bouchard asking the Prime Minister to personally intervene in the Raif Badawi case. Mr. Badawi's only crime was defending freedom of expression, human rights and gender equality.
The Prime Minister boasts about having a principled foreign policy, and yet he remains completely silent on this matter.
Will he finally do what we have been asking him to do for months now and personally intervene in Mr. Badawi's case?
