Plain water and milk are what we would advise. We understand that, on rare occasions, Canadians may want to consume a sugary drink. We're not saying if that ever happened it is the end of the world. I think we all know if we were to do that on rare occasions, it's not an issue. But at the population level, we cannot be promoting to Canadians the consumption of these products. The messages we deliver to the public will have an impact on their behaviour. We have to be careful in terms of how we message that.
