Okay. I'm going to change topics, but I just want to say that you have known for a couple of years that this would end at the end of March of this year, so you cannot just pretend that you have to follow the normal cycles in the House of Commons. You knew before, and you could have prevented it and renewed it in time for those local organizations to have the money. They will not have the money for the next year, and that is unfortunate.

My next question is in regard to the sweeping changes proposed in the marijuana for medical purposes regulations. Through these new regulations, medical marijuana users will be forced to access medical marijuana through expensive commercial growers. Your own department has submitted that a new cost will be $8.80 per gram, up from its current rate of $1.80 per gram.

Many medical marijuana patients grow their own supplies or buy medical marijuana from the local compassion clubs because they are on a limited income due to their illness, or because they have a disability that prevents them from having a higher income. Why are medical marijuana patients being forced to buy their own supplies from expensive commercial growers? How are they expected to afford this medical treatment?
