Health committee  I have a quick point of clarification. The CDR recommendations go to the participating plans, and except for—In all of the provincial plans, the only people who are really cover most of them are seniors and people on social assistance. The vast bulk of Canadians have private sector plans.

Health committee  The thing is, we really think you need to review. We'd work from the premise that there needs to be evidence, and we would like there to be an independent review of the current processes, just to get to the bottom of what's happening, mainly because we have been working and discussing with the vice-presidents of the common drug review.

Health committee  We don't advocate for a separate formulary and process for the diabetes medications, nor for other drugs. We agree with you that if the common drug review was working, if it was open and transparent, and if there was some ability for Canadians to identify that the right people were being consulted, and if we understood what the economic analysis was, we would be supportive of it.
