Lima Group: Canada and Freeland

lima group: Canada and Peru co-chaired a meeting of ministers from the Lima Group of countries last week in Toronto, according to CTV. Freeland and Peru's foreign minister Ricardo Luna were delegated to meet with U.N. Secretary-General Antonio Guterres. Freeland said that she and Peru's foreign minister would take that message to the United Nations in New York City on Monday, following her appearance at a business conference in Toronto. Apart from Canada, the group's 12 members are in Latin America. I do think. . . this is a humanitarian crisis as well as a political one. But Freeland said Monday that Venezuela and Canada are in the same geographic neighbourhood and that Canada has a role to play in supporting the country's democratic institutions and respect for human rights.
