Mr. Speaker, the minister also refuses to say how much money will be used to fight Lyme disease.
Lyme disease is on the rise in Canada and Canadians suffering from this debilitating illness need treatment and care, and they need it now. The Liberals claim to be spending money on an action plan but have not actually budgeted to do anything. No money means no action.
Could the minister tell us exactly how much new money will be spent on Lyme disease this year?
