The Chair Liberal Sean Casey

Colleagues, we have resources until 1:30, but our next item of business is in camera, so we would need to suspend in order to go in camera. Perhaps we can bid adieu to the sponsor of the bill and then determine what you wish to do next.

Ms. Sgro, I would describe your efforts in advancing this bill as being a prime example of someone who was perfectly impatient.

Like Mr. Perkins, I am in the one in five Canadians with eye disease, having had Lasik surgery in my thirties, a spontaneous detachment of the retina in my forties, cataract surgery on both eyes, a trabeculectomy and an iridotomy. I take three drops a day for my glaucoma. I'm pleased on a couple of levels to see what has happened here.

Congratulations to you.
