Mr. Speaker, my question is for the Prime Minister.
Yesterday, the Prime Minister did not know how Canadian programs regarding clinical research on AIDS worked. Yet, in 24 hours, he is supposed to discuss them in Paris.
Could the Prime Minister tell us whether his government has concurred with the joint proposal of the Canadian AIDS Society, the Canadian Hemophilia Society and the Canadian Public Health Association asking that the $1.1 million remaining in the discretionary fund be allocated to clinical and basic research to offset the acute lack of funds in this area?
