Madam Speaker, I thank the hon. member for Don Valley East for all the concerns she has raised about the Rohingyas. Last Sunday we were together in Scarborough to meet with community leaders and talk about this important issue. Yes, I held many round tables to hear the concerns of the community.
I have written a letter to the Minister of Foreign Affairs and have been educating her and her predecessor, Stéphane Dion, about the issue of the Rohingyas. Humanitarian aid has been announced by Canada, but I think there is a desire to do more.
People in my community are looking forward to having dollar-for-dollar matching funds because Canadians want to do something for the Rohingyas. I want to thank them for their enthusiasm and the activism they they have shown on the Rohingya case. They have been raising funds, and that is what they are looking for.
