Mr. Mervin Tweed (Brandon—Souris, CPC): Mr. Speaker, I am pleased to

others from across Canada.
The petitioners ask that the House of Commons amend the law to authorize any
pharmaceutical firm to produce generic versions of any drug patented in Canada
for export to any eligible developing country listed in the law; to allow any
pharmaceutical product to be eligible for compulsory licensing; to simplify the
exportation of a drug to any eligible country in any quantity; to eliminate the
expiry date on a compulsory licence; and to make it easier for developing
countries to benefit from that program.
