Subcommittee on International Human Rights committee  Okay. Do they practise any Sharia law?

Subcommittee on International Human Rights committee  I think those are all the questions I have.

Subcommittee on International Human Rights committee  Thank you to the witnesses for your great presentation here so far today. Again, I think once the free trade agreement can be ratified and can take place, it may be a very important factor for Honduras. I know that crime usually results from two things: being undereducated and being unemployed.

Subcommittee on International Human Rights committee  You use both of them.

Subcommittee on International Human Rights committee  Yes.

Subcommittee on International Human Rights committee  My understanding is that the only way they finance their prisons is through organ—

Subcommittee on International Human Rights committee  I know that here in Canada, it's taken a long time for people to realize they can donate organs. It's been a long process. That process is happening in China, is it not? Is it because of their culture or their religion? I think we had that initially also. Do you think there is some hope that it will change down the road?

Subcommittee on International Human Rights committee  I have a dear friend who, quite a number of years ago, had a live transplant. It was a kidney. You can do that with a kidney, but you can't do it with a heart. I understand that. At that time it was not something that was readily done, 25 years ago or so, and now it's far more prevalent.

Subcommittee on International Human Rights committee  Thank you. Thank you, gentlemen, for your knowledge and abilities to put forth all the work that you've done over the past number of years. Based on your research, have organ seizures from Falun Gong practitioners increased or decreased since your report was published?

Subcommittee on International Human Rights committee  I do know that in order to have organ transplants, you have to have someone who wants that transplant. In your assessment, has illegal global trade in human organs improved or worsened over the past decade?

Subcommittee on International Human Rights committee  Thank you, Chair. Thank you, witnesses, for being here today. From your presentations that I've heard so far, it seems that setting yourself on fire has not necessarily worked. When you protest, you want a positive result. It's my assessment that China does not care about this type of protest.

Subcommittee on International Human Rights committee  Thank you.

Subcommittee on International Human Rights committee  Thank you. I find the testimony here today to be just amazing. I'm new on this committee, and that's why I haven't asked too many questions. It has been a real learning curve for me, and to hear the testimony today is incredible. I really have one question. In your view, how can Canada best support and strengthen Russia's civil society and the work of human rights defenders and independent journalists?

Subcommittee on International Human Rights committee  Let Mr. Sweet start. I think he has a very important question.

Subcommittee on International Human Rights committee  Do I have any time left?
