Absolutely. We agree. The absence of a DIN is not a legitimate reason to tax patients. We're not just talking about the HST or GST, which is applied to other products like natural health products that don't have a DIN. There are some arguments—not that we would agree with them—that could be made in that regard, but with that said, it's very clear that when it comes to the excise tax or a sin tax, it should not be applied to medicine. This has nothing to do with a DIN.
The government is making a good move to exempt these medicines from a DIN, which is only logical. That same logic should apply to the medical cannabis products patients are accessing through the ACMPR. That's where the majority of patients are. That would make a difference in the lives of Canadians.
