Mr. Speaker, I would like to thank the hon. member for Etobicoke—Lakeshore for his question.
About a year ago, members of this House unanimously voted to bring survivors of Daesh, including Yazidi women and girls, to safety. Today, I am proud to update the House. Almost 800 Yazidi women and girls and other survivors of Daesh have already arrived and have begun the process of rebuilding their lives with the assistance of private sponsors and community groups all across Canada.
I continue to be amazed by the generosity and compassion extended to this highly vulnerable group by all Canadians.
