Second, I never said anything about whether or not there should be more or less clinical expertise on CDR. All I was doing was pointing out that the CDR decisions are broadly in line with decisions made by similar groups that use similar levels of evidence.
I do agree that we need to provide resources. That was my point. Either the federal government takes over the entire plan and runs it so that it's equal across the country, or, if you leave it as a provincially based program, you have to be able to work out a federal cost-sharing arrangement so that the provinces that are poorer are able to access the same level of resources as provinces that are richer.
