Mr. Speaker, today in the House the member for Etobicoke—Lakeshore announced on behalf of the government a study of the way in which hepatitis C disease progresses. She talked about training adjudicators and setting up a centre for excellence. That is trifling with the realities of blood injured Canadians. The blood injured do not need studies to tell them how the disease is progressing. They live with it each and every day.
Why is the government offering a dry twig to blood injured Canadians instead of an olive branch?
