Answer:
Canada must seek out those neglected and not receiving external assistance to ensure that they also have a voice and a share in world prosperity. Saudi Arabia aggressively promotes through education and assistance the values of the present political leadership. If we really believe in our Canadian way of life which is based on tolerance and diversity Canada must support the fostering of intercultural dialogue and interfaith understanding, in particular those without the support of the US or big powers.
