Mr. Speaker, I thank my colleague from Longueuil—Charles-LeMoyne for her question.
Indeed, humanitarian needs have skyrocketed in recent years, and it was against this backdrop that I took part in the World Humanitarian Summit last week in Turkey. It was the perfect opportunity to announce a total of $331 million in funding for 171 humanitarian aid projects in 32 countries, as well as our contribution of $274 million to the Central Emergency Response Fund.
We are currently engaged in nationwide consultations. However, humanitarian aid cannot wait.
