He didn’t get the answer he was looking for — but — Saint John M-P Rodney Weston has the loss of the Canadian Blood Services distribution center in front of the federal Health Minister.
Weston raised the issue during Question Period in the House of Commons today — but — the Minister says her department can’t interfere in the business decisions of the agency — she says it’s an “at arms length” agency when it comes to corporate and operational decisions.
The agency plans to close its University Avenue center and move it to a new facility in Halifax within the next two years.
