I appreciate all of that.
We have a guillotine motion, effectively, for a programming motion, so we have very limited time. Therefore, not understanding whether this was worked on for several months or a year is actually quite important when we're coming to making these decisions.
I would ask that you submit to the committee by tomorrow the exact time this started being worked on, so we can ensure that we have the adequate information as we're drafting amendments and considering the rest of this bill.
If it was a year, was that not enough time to adequately consult with provincial health ministers prior to bringing forward this legislation?
