Absolutely.
Once again, let me first stress that Veterans Affairs Canada does not provide medical care. I understand the situation in Nova Scotia, but the fact remains that it is the responsibility of the provinces to administer medical care and to give veterans what we call scripts, not marijuana prescriptions. In fact, we are not talking about prescriptions for marijuana, since it is not a recognized drug that can be prescribed in the same way as other drugs. For doctors to be able to prescribe it, they must be assigned a certain number.
I think it's called a DIN, but I stand to be corrected by the doctors; I know there are some in the room.
You are talking about some veterans in your riding. However, I cannot talk about specific cases, because the information is confidential.
