Subcommittee on International Human Rights committee  There were two suggestions, and I'm just going to incorporate both of them on reading this back into the record: Canada call upon the United Nations Security Council to consider referring the situation of the genocidal incitement to the special prosecutor of the International Criminal Court in order to determine the basis for investigation and prosecution.
