Mr. Speaker, I would like to begin by thanking our colleague from Pierrefonds—Dollard for his excellent work.
Last week I did indeed have the opportunity to participate in the World Health Organization's 75th World Health Assembly. The theme was “Health for peace, peace for health”.
At the assembly, I was able to meet, talk and work with many of my counterparts regarding the fight against the pandemic and efforts to prepare for future pandemics. We also talked about antimicrobial resistance and the effects of climate change on health and health care.
I was also able to meet with Ukraine's health minister to offer him the Canadian government's unwavering support for his people's health and health care.
