Thank you, Mr. Speaker. The issue I want to ask questions on today is a continuation of my Member’s statement. During my Member’s statement I talked about the importance of a health care card that is secure. I’ve promoted the idea before and I’ve done a fair bit of research recently. I found it quite interesting that British Columbia actually has a photo I.D. health care card, but what’s interesting about theirs in particular is they include their driver’s licence on it as well. It simplifies one’s life.

Ontario has been doing this since 2007 and they have many and critical pieces we don’t have time to go through here today, but just highlight things such as magnetic strip, organ donor.

So, knowing that health care is so important, I’d like to ask the Minister of Health and Social Services, would he be interested in investigating this type of process as we proceed to our next renewal of health care cards, which is in about two to three years? Thank you.
