First of all, this bill doesn't deal with physiotherapists and support hose. It deals with two categories of prescription drugs. What it will do is bring equity across the country. For our nurses, I never got the mandate to examine their own plans. That's at the bargaining table in every province and territory, and they do a great job. They're not worried about themselves. They're worried about the patients they take care of. They're worrying about that patient who falls through the cracks in Quebec, like I was telling Mr. Blanchette-Joncas, or they're worrying about the patient who doesn't have any plan.
