Mr. Speaker, the health minister agreed to pay $237 million to Baylis Medical for 10,000 ventilators, even though the devices were not approved in any jurisdiction. Baylis Medical, of course, is Frank Baylis, the former Liberal MP.
Why was there a fast track for Mr. Baylis's device, but no fast track for the rapid testing that every Canadian needs right now? Why is a former Liberal MP with technology that has no track record of being approved anywhere in the world getting a special deal?
