Mr. Chair, my hon. colleague's question points out that Ukraine, which we all support in the House, was unequivocal, clear and unambiguous in its support for the U.S. air strikes against Iran, because Ukraine, like few democracies, understands first-hand that this is a fight between western liberal democracies and authoritarian states. Ukraine is on the front lines of that fight and has been subject to the Shahed drones that Iran has been providing Russia. They have attacked Ukrainians and their communities thousands of times over the last four years, leading to thousands, if not tens of thousands, of deaths.
Iran and Russia are in this together, along with the People's Republic of China. There is an increasing rise in authoritarianism that threatens not only democracies like Ukraine, but also democracies on the other side of the Atlantic, such as Canada.
