Mr. Speaker, I am very proud, as I am advancing the rights of women and the rights of diabetics in Canada. I am a bit concerned about the member for Peace River—Westlock. About two short days after the member's leader cavalierly indicated that he would be invoking the notwithstanding clause to trample Canadians' charter rights, the member for Peace River—Westlock stood up and called for ending abortions, protecting the preborn and overturning the Morgentaler decision. That demonstrates quite clearly who is on the side of protecting women's rights and women's reproductive rights in this chamber.

Mr. Speaker, I want to thank the hon. member for Lac‑Saint‑Louis for his hard work. This is the first time a high-level dialogue has taken place between Canada and the African Union Commission, allowing for numerous discussions. The relationship between Canada and the African Union is based on the shared priorities of peace, democracy, sustainable development, health and economic understanding. More than ever, we need to work closely together to ensure economic resiliency and shared prosperity for all of our citizens.
