Mr. Speaker, my question is for the Minister of Health.
The key to a successful anti-smoking education campaign will be a blueprint developed by the government in partnership with the health community.
What steps will the minister take to ensure that a nation-wide network of health volunteers, professionals and organizations are actively utilized in the design, implementation and monitoring of such a campaign? What new regulatory framework does the minister envision to give the Government of Canada greater control over cigarette manufacturers and thereby safeguard the health of Canadians at all times?
