As we look beyond t
hat to the other 32 countries of the hemisphere, and the Prime Minister spoke to this, it is important for us to un
derstand that while there are great benefits to be had by society in all countries through freer trade and the development and increased wealth that comes from it, those will not actually be achie
ved unless there is some requisite level of human dignity and human rights in those countries, un
less they ...[+++]have some sort of democratic support for the policies of those countries, and unless they have some sort of level of labour standards and environmental integrity.
En ce qui concerne les 32 autres pays de l'hémisphère, il est important, comme le disait le premier ministre, de comprendre que même si le libre-échange a beaucoup à apporter à tous ces pays, notamment au plan de la santé, ces avantages ne se concrétiseront pas sans un certain niveau de respect de la dignité humaine et des droits de la personne, sans un appui démocratique à leurs politiques et sans l'application de certaines normes en matière de travail et de protection de l'environnement.
