Mr. Speaker, that is not much comfort for those who were infected before 1986. Frankly, they do not really care what it is called.
The minister is so fond of saying “We care. We have families too and we really understand how you feel”. The hepatitis C victims have family members also, except they are dying. Instead of spending their last months with their families, they are now going to be going through the courts fighting against this minister for compensation.
Is this the new Liberal definition of compassion?
