International Trade committee  I'm not quite sure. That was a quote from where?

International Trade committee  Okay. I'm not quite sure what you want me to answer there.

International Trade committee  I think it's clear, from what I've said already, that I don't feel it's putting the people.... I don't think it's doing that. It's doing exactly as my friend here is saying. It's big corporations that are benefiting. One thing that worries me is big pharma, because big pharma is

International Trade committee  Yes. The distance and the rural thing.

International Trade committee  Yes, we help....

International Trade committee  There are many other drugs that are needed. As the population increases.... Of course, because the infection rate has gone down, you actually have more people who are living, and more people with AIDS, of course. If you're on antiretrovirals for many years, you find that they d

International Trade committee  Yes. A second generation of drugs are certainly ones that are still needed, and the patent on these is not going to be available. There are still problems too. We don't know whether India will be able to do this forever. Even with this, there's only 41% of adults who are actuall

International Trade committee  Yes. That is the truth. We don't know. I couldn't say. I don't know how many jobs. Anybody who works like they do, in countries all over the world, realizes this is the most damaging trade agreement they've ever had for access to medicine. It is the most damaging for Canada, as C

International Trade committee  To me it's more important to look at people's lives, instead of the millions and trillions of dollars.

International Trade committee  Well, because most of the generic drugs at the moment come from India, and we have to thank India tremendously for that. It has lower patent laws than most other countries, so it is the one that manufactures drugs, but it relies on drugs that are not on patent. As you know, the i

International Trade committee  No, I know it's not, but that's where people in Africa get the drugs, and mainly across the world. That's why PEPFAR is getting the drugs from India, but it relies on things that are not on patent, so it is relying on companies all over the world to supply it with the drugs. This

International Trade committee  Yes. We were requoting.
