Mr. Speaker, on May 29, the Liberal-NDP coalition voted against a Conservative motion to sue the companies responsible for the opioid crisis for all damages and devote the money received to prevention, treatment and recovery.
Liberals sided with McKinsey and big pharma against the victims of the opioid crisis. However, McKinsey just agreed to pay another $230 million in damages in the U.S.
While American victims are collecting big time from these corporate drug dealers, why did the government vote against bringing home full compensation for victims here in Canada?
