Mr. Speaker, the member is quite wrong in saying that nothing has been done. I do acknowledge his interest in the subject and thank him for having met with me about it and providing me with information, which I considered carefully.
I want the hon. member to know, indeed the House to know, that the department of health is working with provincial ministries of health, medical associations and other interested persons to find a way forward on encouraging availability of organs for donation. We are doing that through consultation and by encouraging people to fill out organ donation forms in the provinces. We are also looking at other strategies that we believe will be effective.
The member should know that we are working with all those involved to find a better way.
