Thank you, Madam Chair, for showing respect by carefully listening to your colleagues during this important committee meeting.
Dr. Haraoui, you made the connection between contemporary wars and the spread of bio-resistant organisms to Canada. Migratory movements resulting from such conflicts, be it soldiers, humanitarian workers or asylum seekers, foster the spread of these bacteria.
Since Quebec is a place that receives the highest number of asylum speakers per capita in the country, does that actually put it at the forefront of antimicrobial resistance in Canada?
