Mr Gary Doer, Premier (government leader) of Manitoba, the province which is hosting the Assembly, vowed to get to the bottom of the controversy surrounding the denial of visas to dozens of international participants.

"We’re going to follow this up with the federal government and the group here to make sure that whatever went wrong won’t go wrong again," said Doer in an interview after bringing greetings to the Assembly.
