Mr. Speaker, that is not true. There was a problem facing Canadians and we had to take action to protect their health.
I can only quote Chris O'Brien, who is the head of the Ontario Association of Nuclear Medicine. He said this on the very day that we were debating the bill before Parliament:
Last week, I guess you could describe it as struggling. This week it's devastating, and next week potentially catastrophic.
That is what he said. This was a crisis. We acted on behalf of Canadians. We are proud we did.
