Mr. Speaker, I am happy to provide whatever I can to convince the hon. member that in fact it was safe. I noticed the last time we had this discussion the member could not wait for us to give the anthrax serum to our troops. She wanted to make sure they got it to protect them. That is exactly what we did. We gave it to them to protect them. It was safe and it was effective. In fact any serum that was found by the FDA to not be fully safe or effective was removed.
In the House of Commons on February 4th, 1999. See this statement in context.
