The government’s declared that ISIS is committing a genocide against the Yazidi people. So what are we doing about it? Yazidi-Canadian Dalal Abdi talks about her journey to Canada and her family's life back in Iraq and Turkey. Liberal MP Nathaniel Erskine-Smith talks about voting against the majority of his party to declare a genocide earlier in the week. Stephanie Carvin, assistant professor at the Norman Paterson School of International Affairs, tells us how using the word "genocide" affects Canada’s obligations abroad.Support COMMONS: http://commonspodcast.comSee omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
