I wish more could see up close, as I have, how your thoughtful and tireless international engagement is continually making an important difference, for Canadians and for a better world. (14/14)
Finally, my thanks to our Prime Minister and his team, for the great privilege of working together so closely, particularly through these intensive recent months.
Great conversation with National Security Advisor Jake Sullivan, National Security and Intelligence Advisor, Jody Thomas, and Foreign and Defence Policy Adviser, Dan Costello, on shared 🇨🇦🇺🇸 security interests, including steadfast support for Ukraine.
Plus tôt ce soir, l’avion transportant Michael Kovrig et Michael Spavor a quitté l’espace aérien chinois. Après une épreuve extrêmement difficile, ils rentrent chez eux. Merci à chacune des personnes et tous nos partenaires dans le monde qui ont aidé à obtenir leur libération.
Earlier tonight, the aircraft carrying Michael Kovrig and Michael Spavor left Chinese airspace. After an unbelievably difficult ordeal, they are on their way home. I want to thank every single person and partner around the world who helped secure their release.
Today is 1000 days since our colleague Michael Kovrig was arbitrarily jailed by China.
His sole offence was to be a Canadian in the wrong place at the wrong time.
Every day his grit and character in the face of injustice inspire us.
