Mr. Speaker, the benefit to Canada is having a high-level security dialogue where we can talk about issues that are important to us, and issues that are important to the Chinese government.
We continue to be strong in our values and principles, and our expectations of anyone we engage with around the world. However, having a strong, robust relationship that allows us to create economic opportunities for Canadians, and make gains on human rights and consular files is what the previous government was unable to do, and it is what Canadians expect this government to get done for them.
