Ms. Long, I will go to you first.
I want to pick up on what Mr. MacGregor was talking about when he was citing the letter that has been signed by most provinces and all territories explicitly making the point that the health care system in their respective jurisdictions—and they are responsible at the end of the day—is not ready and requesting that the federal government, or this Parliament, give an extension.
Does that not indicate to us—and again, as Mr. Maloney was saying, put yourself in our position in terms of options available to us—to extend at least for three years so that the provinces and territories are ready to provide that particular health care provision for people who may need it?
