text: Philpott was a failure as the Health Minister and I do not see any benefit in trying to find her another fit. Canadians were hoping she could step up and put a stop to tobacco deaths and the excessive cost of treating those people suffering from tobacco related deceases. 30,000 a year die this way and we keep it legal for the sake of the lobbyists. The revenue doesn't even pay a portion of the health care costs. We need someone brave enough to stop the growth, production and sale of tobacco products.
