Mr. Speaker, the member is completely off base.
The minister has responded to committee recommendations, a committee of which the hon. member was a participant. The minister has said: "All right, I will consider what the recommendations of the committee are, first of all, that the legislation passed as it was and second, I will take into consideration some of the concerns with respect to a transitional period in order to accommodate the concerns of all of those who depended on advertising". He has done that.
The minister has also taken into consideration the overwhelming opinion of the Canadian public that this is a health bill and that as a health bill it shall pass unchanged. The minister has also said: "I will be reasonable. I will receive further representations". He has received them and he has presented amendments that reflect weighing those recommendations in the balance.
