Mr. Speaker, the government's refusal to airlift people out is problematic in two ways. On the European side, millions of refugees are stuck in camps because there is no room for them on planes or because they simply cannot afford flights. On our side, in Montreal alone, 40 tonnes of humanitarian aid is sitting in warehouses because we cannot send it to Ukraine. At the moment, the only thing we can move between Canada and eastern Europe is the Prime Minister. When will the government start chartering flights?
