I'd appreciate a bit of an exchange between Mr. Lloyd and Mr. Freeman and a quick review of a comment that the official from Health Canada, Mr. Glover, made.
It goes back to the point Mr. Freeman made, that right now we're synchronized with the international community in terms of terminology that's used, and so on--at least that's what I understood you to say--and that if we remove the word “toxic” and begin to change some of that nomenclature, we will not be synchronized; we won't be in step with them.
On the other hand, Mr. Lloyd, having been at some of these conferences, you've stated very emphatically that right now we have different definitions from the international community--that's what I understood you to say--and that in fact we are right now out of step. So there's a contradiction going on there between what you said, Mr. Lloyd, and what Mr. Freeman said. Maybe you meant something rather different. And then we had Mr. Glover making the point that Canada is taking the lead to harmonize. That seems to incline toward what Mr. Lloyd had attested there. So I need some clarification as to what the discrepancies are about.
