Thank you very much, Madam Chair.
As well, I would like to thank the witnesses today for excellent presentations.
I would like to follow up a bit on what my Liberal colleague was mentioning about the best profession for delivery of services, because we did do the human health resource study.
Mr. Poston, I think you were here then, and we got the same recommendation from you to recognize scope of practice. You mentioned that Ontario—I come from Oshawa, Ontario—would save $72.4 million a year if we would just coordinate the service delivery with pharmacists.
I was wondering about this. Basically, delivery of services is a provincial jurisdiction, but I'm curious about this. What is the obstacle? There seems to be a hodge-podge across the country. Pharmacists can work within their scope of practice, but other provinces don't recognize that. What would be the obstacle there?
Is there anything the federal government could do to help jurisdictions start working to recognize scopes of practice? Because we're having a demographic shift, and that's why this study is so important. What can we do to help out those jurisdictions?
