Mr. Speaker, I appreciate the comments made by the Conservative member. He was quick to point out the hypocrisy or the flip-flop of the Liberals in the House. It is something we all enjoy doing because it is such a transparent and obvious development.
However the key issue in this debate is really this: how do we deal with escalating drug prices in this country? How do we deal with the fact that for many Canadians access to necessary medication is just not a reality? It is all well and good for the Conservatives to chastise the Liberals and not accept responsibility for the current situation we are in without giving some solution and some explanation.
My question for the member for Pictou—Antigonish—Guysborough is this one. What are the solutions that his party is prepared to offer in terms of bringing down the prices of drugs and ensuring that every citizen in our country today has access to necessary medications for their own health and well-being?
