Look at what we've done to our native people that we were just beginning to have to face today. Look at what we did to the Sikhs and the Hindus in 1914. What we did to the Italians and Japanese during the war. We turned back the Jewish ship during second world war, sent them back to a certain death in Germany. So we are not without our own past sin and the only way that we are going to be able to advance in the world with human right is to acknowledge our own sins and to assist in helping to rid the others of the lack of understanding.
Tolerance can only come through learning and dialogue and understanding.
Tolerance is a word that I think that Canada, I hope Canada is moving beyond. Tolerance is a word that engineers use to measure a level of stress. So as in Canada, we have passed tolerance into an embracing of each other and a love and an understanding. Perhaps, if the government of China is willing, we can share some of our secrets with them. I like to really pay tribute to Amnesty International.
