"Rather than becoming complacent about HIV/AIDS dues to successes at home, it is incumbent upon Canada and other wealthy nations to apply their successful experience abroad, to provide the necessary resources for education and prevention in developing nations, and to facilitate the low-cost provision of drugs that can assist HIV patients to manage the disease successfully. That assistance should not be regarded as a "cost," but as an "investment" that will reduce the appalling costs of the disease and has already been proven to do so in Canada."
I can only tell you by what I read ,I didnt make this up.
