Mr. Speaker, I want to thank my colleague for his nuanced and compassionate speech. I also want to thank the entire Standing Committee on Health for this study, which is so very important.
Research into breast cancer must continue. Discoveries are being made quite regularly, including with respect to genetics and DNA. There are some genes that predispose a person to preventable breast cancers.
In certain hereditary cases, would it also be appropriate to include this genetic research to see if a woman is more at risk than others of developing breast cancer?
