Is Transport Canada not talking to Health Canada on this issue at all? Is this something none of you are aware of in terms of how that will be used or implemented?
No? Okay.
Minister, you had a number of scathing audits on your performance, and they continue to pile up. Your own department's internal report from September has shown a slow response to the pandemic. The external review panel's interim report outlines the failure in cancelling the pandemic early warning system before COVID. Certainly there is the Auditor General's report on the lack of pandemic preparedness, surveillance and border control measures. Most recently was the Auditor General's report pointing out gaps in the oversight on the natural health products.
Two weeks ago my colleague, Mr. Davies, asked if you accepted any responsibility for the failures outlined in the Auditor General's report. You avoided any accountability. Do you now accept some responsibility for the failures of the departments of which you are in charge?
