Mr. Speaker, I want to thank the hon. member for his question. The government is very concerned about the increasing number of young people who are smoking.
The Supreme Court of Canada has made a decision, some of which is very positive for the government in that it confirms some of the government's statistical background data. However, the government has some concerns with that decision.
We do have a blueprint which is being circulated across the country. Consultations are taking place as we now speak. We hope they will be completed by the end of the month.
I hope to come back to Parliament with a package which will address not only the concerns of teenagers and young people, in terms of their smoking habits, but the country as a whole, to put a comprehensive package before parliamentarians.
