Thank you, Mr. Chair.
Ms. Namiesniowski, on January 29, you said that provincial laboratories were able to detect cases of infection, but that the confirmation is done in Winnipeg.
Is that still the case? Would it not be more efficient to have the territories, provinces and Quebec confirm directly? Couldn't public health authorities and hospitals confirm cases themselves? If that is already being done, so much the better, but if not, why not?
