Thank you very much, Madam Chair.
Again, I want to thank you all for being here.
I must say, today, after listening to you, I'm very impressed with the action you're taking with the investments the government has made to implement these recommendations. I'm also impressed with how you've improved the communications and working collaboratively. I think all of us here understand from the lessons we've learned how difficult it is with the communications locally, provincially, federally, with industry and with the public, and how difficult it can be sometimes to respect all these different jurisdictional challenges in Canada.
I was wondering if you could take us through the process now with what you've learned.
Dr. Butler-Jones, you made an interesting comment at the beginning. I think you said that over 20,000 Canadians per day can have symptoms of something such as listeriosis, or whatever will come around in the future. If you look at listeria in general, it's very common. Much of this is handled at the local level.
I was wondering if you could walk us through just a little bit of the process of what you've learned and what we've seen in improvements in terms of how to take something that's locally at a doctor's office to, here we go, now we have to take a look at this as a bigger-picture type of spectrum.
