I really think that speaks to Dr. Koivu's lack of experience with this population, because that's not true. Fentanyl has been present in London, Ontario since 2012. It really started to pick up in 2013 through 2015, which is why we actually started the program in 2016, because at that point fentanyl was dominating the opioid sales on the streets of London. That's why we needed to make a change at that point.
