Thank you very much, Mr. Chair. I'll continue then to my next important question for Canadians.

Ms. MacDonald, another initiative that we saw in this NDP-Liberal coalition agreement is the implementation of pharmacare by the end of 2023. Now, the PBO previously priced this out at $87 billion.

Ms. MacDonald, would you say that this number is still accurate, or should we be considering another number and should the budget be considering another number, given this most recent development?
