Thank you.
The first thing I would say, just to reiterate the comments I made in my remarks, is that there is no question that discussions following the Supreme Court's decision in Carter have really shone quite a bright light on the area of palliative care, but well before that there was a lot of interest in our department in doing work in this area. We have undertaken a number of initiatives with the Canadian Hospice Palliative Care Association, for example, in some of the areas that I mentioned in my remarks.
Has that, to this point, led to what one could really call a comprehensive national strategy? The answer to that is “not yet”, but, as I also mentioned in my remarks, because of the elevated interest, we fully expect that in our upcoming discussions with provinces and territories about the home and community care piece that's intended to be a part of this new health accord, there will be a major focus on palliative care.
I don't know, Sharon, if you want to say anything further about initiatives the department has pursued to this point.
