Mr. Minister, do you actually have a clear understanding of what the potential increased pharmaceutical costs to Canadians are or are not? Do you not have an idea of what the range may be? If so, why don't you share those with Canadians? If not, how can you expect Canadians to evaluate a deal that may or may not drive up pharmaceutical costs by a billion dollars a year? How can anybody evaluate that if they don't know and you won't tell them?
