Mr. Speaker, on the topic of aid to developing countries, two years ago Parliament unanimously passed a law to ease access to lower cost generic AIDS medicines for developing countries, confronting the ongoing tide of suffering and death. So far not a single pill has left Canada.
During the AIDS conference in Toronto, the health minister promised that the government would review the law and make it work.
Could the minister tell the House what immediate action will be taken to ensure the first pills will finally reach those who so desperately need them?
