Minister, it's been almost a year since the final report of the Hoskins advisory council on the implementation of national pharmacare was released. As you know, it recommended that Canada implement universal single-payer public pharmacare.
We know your cabinet colleague Finance Minister Morneau has been very clear that he would prefer a private patchwork approach rather than the universal single-payer plan that Dr. Hoskins recommends.
Minister, as the Minister of Health, and given that you have now had six months to assess Dr. Hoskins' report, what is your position? Do you agree with Dr. Hoskins or with Minister Morneau?
