Mr. Speaker, we all know how much Canadians love our Canadian health care system. The petitioners are asking that we look at the importance of incorporating the cost of medicines. Often people go to a hospital and get free medications and leave the hospital and do not have the finances to get the medications they require to stay out of the hospital. The petitioners are asking the Government of Canada to look at incorporating pharmacare costs into the Canada Health Act and beyond.
