Subcommittee on International Human Rights committee  I'd like to follow up on the question that was asked a moment ago. It is true that Canada has already done a lot to help the Congo, but we are convinced that it can do even more. The reason we are able to stand up and speak out against what is happening in the Congo, as my broth

Subcommittee on International Human Rights committee  I would say that, with the current government, the issue of judicial institutions is very difficult to resolve because the government is corrupt and that corruption is everywhere. It is difficult to see people who are part of the government act with impunity or have recourse to p

Subcommittee on International Human Rights committee  I would say so. According to everything that is currently happening in the Congo—such as the fact that civil society and the opposition political parties have gotten together, as Mr. Kabuya mentioned earlier—they want change.

Subcommittee on International Human Rights committee  I would like to add a few words. Right now, we are using the example of the population of Kasai, where many people have fled from their villages.

Subcommittee on International Human Rights committee  I would like to add something. With regard to Kasai, certain problems have been raised and it has been said that armed groups, the Kamuina Nsapu, wanted to defy the government. It has been said that this is why the government reacted. The real story is that this situation has be

Subcommittee on International Human Rights committee  Okay, thank you. Mr. Kabuya and I are appearing today to lend our voice to those in Congo who have no voice. We live in Canada, a country where human rights are very important and valued. In Congo, on the other hand, something highly unusual is happening. A number of us mainta
