Mr. Speaker, I shall repeat what I said. The scientists of Health Canada are doing their job, and they will be giving us a decision shortly. I believe, however, that the hon. member may not have her facts exactly right. The companies applied for drug approval in the U.S. first, before Canada. The Americans have just now given approval. Some time is needed for decisions to be reached on protocols that are not favourable. I believe the hon. member will not be disappointed. Health Canada is doing its job, and doing it well.
In the House of Commons on December 1st, 1995. See this statement in context.
