Mr. Speaker, it is important to recognize that the New Democrats have acknowledged the importance of the legislation and supported us in trying to push it forward. It is truly appreciated, but it is one aspect of a comprehensive approach that the government has taken to deal with a national crisis.
I wonder if the member would comment on the importance of working with the many different stakeholders, whether it is provincial entities, the municipal governments, first responders, or the communities. There is a much larger role for all of us to play and the important role the national government needs to play is one of leadership. It is a holistic approach in trying to prevent many of these accidental overdoses from taking place. Would the member agree?
