Thank you, Chair.
Thank you all for being here. It's a great pleasure to have you here, and the tremendous amount of information you have provided for our report and for Canadians who are watching is greatly appreciated.
I come from Saskatchewan, very rural Saskatchewan. My riding is 43,000 square kilometres, and yet it's not the biggest riding. I had many patients who travelled quite long distances to see me. The unfortunate part for us in the southeast corner of Saskatchewan is that we don't have a lot of family practitioners who have skills and knowledge in the gynecological area, so I think a lot of things get missed.
Your comment, Dr. Salvador, about the self-screening is tremendous, because when we talk about HPV self-screening, I would say to you that I would bet that maybe only 5% of the population knows it even exists.
To further emphasize that, though, what sort of costs is that going to involve?
