Mr. Chair, the member is bang on. We do have to get a move on and we do have to ensure people have access to the procedure. Again, the procedure is angioplasty. I will correct my colleague from Bruce—Grey—Owen Sound, CCSVI is the illness, is the disease and I am well aware of that.
When I looked at the testimony of Dr. Sandy McDonald, he indicated that the angioplasty procedure had been done since 1984. This is not a new procedure. It is not like a new drug where we have to do a double-blinded study. We know that the procedure works to unplug these veins. We are saying that CCSVI is the illness and yes, people with MS seem to have that illness, but we should still be treating CCSVI.
Maybe my colleague could speak a little more on the need to ensure that process takes place as soon as possible.
