Mr. Speaker, I want to put all of this into context. We are all united on this motion today and we have been unwavering in our support throughout the past five weeks for a compensation package that includes all blood injured Canadians.
Our support goes back to September 1996 when my leader and other members of my caucus agreed to support members of the Hepatitis C Society of Canada in their petitions to the government for full and fair compensation. Our position has always been clear on this. We will not change our position. We will stand united with one voice because we believe it is the right thing to do.
