Mr. Speaker, the history of this better shows that had it not been for the federal government, there would have been no compensation package at all.
When we did come together, we developed a position that all governments agreed to in relation to those infected before 1986. Today's development is a new one. The ground has moved and an important partner has changed its position.
I am telling the hon. Leader of the Opposition that we will take that position into account. When we understand fully what Ontario is saying, we will respond.
