Mr. Speaker, in that case the individual tried through various means and ways to get some support, or at least to get back what it would have cost in Canada, or a portion thereof, but he was not able to do that. He saved his own life. The officials refused to give him treatment. He was refused that surgery outright for at least three months. He would have been dead. He saved his life and now, as my hon. colleague has mentioned, he has been denied follow-up care simply because he used the services at a clinic which is world famous.
We have to face reality. There are hundreds of cases like this. The least the government could do would be to pay a portion of their expenses, at least the same portion as they would have paid here. That is not the only case. There are three more, Mr. Speaker, but I know that you do not want to hear about them right now.
