Mr. Speaker, I thank my hon. colleague for his question.
As I said, I think that we need to avoid politicizing this issue in the House. We clearly expressed that we stand in solidarity with our French colleagues. Our message was well received by them. The French people understand that Canada is one of the greatest defenders of freedom of speech in the world.
We will continue to defend freedom of speech. We will continue to fight throughout the world to defend the values and principles that Canadians hold dear.
