Okay. Thank you.
Mr. Harrington, you did a good job outlining some of the issues with the proposed cost recovery. You mentioned the GST. I also understand that natural health products are generally not covered by extended health care plans the way pharmaceuticals are. They have no patent protection providing a monopolistic pricing period, as pharmaceuticals have for 20 years.
Is it fair to compare the natural health products industry with the pharmaceutical industry when it comes to cost recovery?
