Thank you, Chair.
I'd like to thank all the witnesses for very interesting presentations.
I want to start by addressing something my colleague Ms. McLeod said. It was about shifting the dialogue, first and foremost.
The Prime Minister shifted the dialogue by becoming selective about what he was going to honour. The G8 declaration, signed by our Prime Minister in Italy, included a full range of reproductive interventions that, quite frankly, included family planning and abortions. It's this document that forms the basis of this year's G8 initiative, not a WHO definition.
So my question is this. Given that you all mentioned that you support a comprehensive approach, wouldn't you agree that this is now maybe becoming a menu-like approach, based on what our government would like to do, and would contradict this consensus on a comprehensive approach, and in doing so would drastically reduce its effectiveness?
