I do not agree at all with the remarks of my colleague opposite.
First, when we created a national program for all of Canada's provinces and territories by investing about $200 billion, we launched a process to sign bilateral agreements with each province, Quebec included.
Second, I would ask my colleague to talk to diabetics and women in his riding about the cost of their medication these days. The oral contraception pill costs about $25 a month, or $300 a year. Diabetes medication can cost between $900 and $1,700 a year.
I think my colleague should support this bill so that his constituents can save money while receiving care from the health system and getting their medication.
