Thank you, Mr. Chair.
My first question goes to Dr. Tam.
Dr. Tam, I'd like your point of view as chief public health officer. Do you believe that, last winter, before the first wave of the pandemic, the public health system was underfunded to the point of fragility?
I am thinking specifically of the situation in the CHSLDs. If that is the case, did the underfunding that increased the fragility reduce the quality of the public health response to the pandemic?
