Madam Speaker, to date that has not been the case. I have no problems doing my work in my riding. That said, we can think of Kenny Chiu, a former member of the House of Commons who was targeted by Beijing's attacks. There are some very serious examples. Some members are no longer in this place because of the Communist Party's efforts to ensure that they lost their election and could no longer return to the House to defend their political ideas. That is very serious. The government says that this did not influence the election, that it did not really change anything. However, some members are not here because of the Communists.

Madam Speaker, that is absolutely true. Had there not been an election, that committee would still be sitting. When we talk about human rights in China, we are talking about the same rights that we have here in Canada, for indigenous people, women and parents. Those same rights need to apply to citizens of China, Taiwan and Hong Kong. As parliamentarians and Canadians, we need to consider these issues, ask hard questions and find solutions to make the world a more peaceful place with fewer wars.
