I am coming back again to paragraph 6(d). What do you mean by “hospital association”? For example, do you think that a public health department in Quebec is one? I think that with paragraph 6(d), we are leaving out an important player. It bothers me deeply to see the extent to which the federal government can deal directly with hospital associations without feeling the need to go through provincial health authorities.
I would like your opinion on that. What are hospital associations? They are certainly not provincial health authorities.
