Absolutely.
In March I took some manufacturers here through the online application process. They were in contact with your office and with Minister Anand's office, and they were told to just kind of sit on the sidelines. That bothers me, because there was an announcement just recently—this week, I think it was—about a company called Medicom. They're in Montreal, and they were given a contract to produce masks, but in the report it says they can't actually start producing until July. There are several companies here in the Prairies that would love to help out and would be able to help out and could produce PPE long before July. I'm just wondering why we are waiting until July.
Just as a point of reference, in France and in the U.S. that same company ramped up mask production on February 7, so why not Canada?
