Mr. Speaker, I believe we have explained the rationale and the approach that governments have taken and it is clear from the record.
Medical procedures and forms of treatment bear with them an inherent risk. When people go into the hospital for an operation sometimes things go wrong and they are harmed.
What differentiates the period for which we are offering assistance is that something could have been done at that time and was not. That is the difference between the years 1986-90.
