You're not answering the question, Mr. Matthews.
Frankly, I don't think Canadians care if we have a pre-existing relationship with the supplier. We cut them a cheque for products to be used for our doctors, for our nurses and to protect our elderly and they are clearly not acceptable for that purpose. Are these suppliers keeping taxpayers' money or will it be refunded to us?
If it's not going to be refunded to us, how much money have we spent on supplies that are not appropriate or do not meet Canadian standards, please?
