Mr. Chair, the Prime Minister has been clear. At a time when Canadians are scattered across the region, we want to make sure they are safe. Obviously, we want to ensure an end to the regime, and we want to ensure that all regions of the country are secure.
This evening, I had an opportunity to speak with Canadians about the importance of protecting Canadians currently in the region and of finding ways to bring them back to Canada if they so wish.
