from providing help in Afghanistan.On Thursday, a motion from New Democratic Party Foreign Affairs Critic Heather McPherson was embraced
unanimously by the House of Commons Foreign Affairs and International Development Committee, getting in touch with the federal government to
instantly modify areas of the Criminal Code currently preventing Canadian humanitarian organizations from providing help in Afghanistan.&&
While other countries have currently created humanitarian carve-outs or exemptions to allow their agencies to operate in Afghanistan, Canada
hasn&& t, & said McPherson
& This implies millions of Afghans in desperate requirement of assistance are not being reached
We have actually called on the Liberals to repair this often times but, 18 months later, aid firms are still waiting,& & McPherson said
& There & s no excuse for this delay, & stated McPherson
& The Liberal government needs to table legislation to repair the Criminal Code now, so we can get aid to Afghans immediately
A feminist federal government would have repaired this last year
It&& s time for the Liberals to take their obligations seriously, keep their guarantees, and do the work needed to help the world&& s most
susceptible,& & she added.The post Canadian MP requires lifting constraints on aid to Afghanistan initially appeared on Ariana News.
