Mr. Speaker, as we have indicated, we are happy that the government has indicated that it will support this NDP motion.
It has taken this long for the little bit of compensation the victims of thalidomide have received. They were in fact coerced into basically signing an indemnity form in the 1990s. The little bit of compensation they have received certainly does not address the critical health issues they continue to face.
Now that we see that the government is going to support the motion, could it please let us know how quickly it is going to act? Could it tell us what the compensation and assistance will actually look like?
