Thank you. I don't think it's necessarily going to provide a lot of comfort to parents to tell them that there are other ways they could deal with their child's fever. They're probably going to end up taking them to the emergency room at two in the morning rather than providing them with the pediatric pain medication that would just solve the problem.
I think this is one of the big issues in which I see a major disconnect between the advice we get from the Public Health Agency of Canada and what we hear on the ground.
I represent a large rural riding in northern Alberta. They see your press conferences, and they don't feel heard. They don't feel like you have been on the ground in many rural and remote communities to actually understand some of the day-to-day experiences, so I would encourage you.... Have you gone outside of Ottawa to hear from people directly, to see what things are looking like on the ground in Canada?
