Done. If i could just maybe correct a couple facts here. First of all, none of our nato allies, not all of them are involved in the coalition, but none are opposed to it. They are all supportive of our mission against the Islamic State. The United Nations is not opposed. In fact, this intervention is happening at invitation of the government of iraq under international law. In terms of refugees, canadas response has been generous and responsible. Weve admitted so far 15 of all the world refugees from the region. In terms of our response to this recent crisis, even before it was in the headline...

[ speaking french ] [ speaking french ] weve already announced more, already are doing more. But this isnt just a game of trying to up the numbers. Were trying to do things responsibly. Ive visited refugee camps in syria, in northern iraq. Ive visited with families we have accepted from these regions.

So thats that gives you a little flavor for the kind of International Diplomatic exchanges were having r...

I say the same thing. Im very proud to know and understand quebec and have strong support there. But i know that an ndp government will represent canadian values across the country. Its very clear, we saw it again last week, in the french debate you were happy to talk about your decision to make it so that separatists could break up this country on a single vote, even though the Supreme Court of canada said no unanimously. But you wont talk about it with Peter Mansbridge in english. You wouldnt talk about it at the mcklain debate. The fact is you carry two different discussions at the same tim...

States has allocated more than 4. 5 billion to meet syrian humanitarian needs. This includes over 1. 5 billion to ngos, the International Federation of red cross and red crescent and other International Organizations.

The world can and must do better. Its imperative when we talk to our allies particularly ...
