Thank you, Mr. Chair.
Thank you to our witnesses for being here today.
Mr. Buckley, Mr. Kusmierczyk started very enthusiastically with an anecdote about a natural health products company in his riding, before providing you with statistics on deaths and hospitalizations, none of which, I'm sure, occurred as a result of the products made by the organization in his riding.
He also left you with no opportunity to respond, so I want to go back to you now on his comments about the necessity for balance. As I said, he started out very enthusiastically supporting this natural health product business in the riding and was very keen on it, but then he changed his tune a bit. He flipped. He did a little switcheroo, if you will, in providing these statistics.
What would you like to say in response to that argument from Mr. Kusmierczyk, please?
