Mr. Speaker, the health minister has tried to craft a public image of being a really caring and compassionate individual. That is his leadership strategy: he has more heart than his rival, the finance minister.
However, last week we saw the real McCoy come forward. He callously sentenced thousands of hepatitis C victims to suffer alone without any hope.
I would like to ask Mr. Compassion today, why is it that he found $2 million for Brian Mulroney and not one thin dime for the victims of hepatitis C?
