white house is not a state institution it's a political office which is very partisan by its very nature i'm kind of surprised that you don't see anything noteworthy in a political office would be allocating money directly to such a specialized agency would you feel the same way if the kremlin would have been found wiring money directly to rosado would. set off any red flags while. your knowledge of the internal funding of national governments is obviously much better than mine i think that from the point of view of the way the dollars within our government operations find their way into. battling doping in sport and promoting the messages around the value of the sport is and is a national concern and it's. under national jurisdiction that's sovereign it's independent and each country i guess has their own manner in making that happen and so i can't comment on the way that happens in the united states i could certainly
2:31 am
fill in how it happens in canada if that's of interest well i just want to point out that interest in antidoping expedia by the. white house. occurred immediately after the sochi olympics i mean that's when the money started coming not before but starting in january two thousand and fifteen but i want to ask you one more. question specifically about the north american practices i'm not sure about canada but it seems that team usa has an oversized representation of athletes and various attention deficit disorders which allows legally to be taking drugs with performance enhancing qualities and as somebody who's studied in the in the united states i know for a fact that a.t.g. for example is. over diagnosed in the country i mean that is a fact that is accepted by medical professionals there i just wonder don't you
2:32 am
think that would give a somewhat unfair advantage to the american athletes when they can legally take drugs would not be available to other athletes. well i guess to really answer that question one has to look at the rules around therapeutic use exemption which are available to all athletes in the world and the premise there oksana is that athletes who require medication for healthy living that might otherwise be banned in sport have the right to apply to use those things and those medications and the application process is very thorough it's deaded domestically it's vetted internationally and it must be ultimately approved and signed off by the world anti-doping agency and by the international sports federation that the athlete participates in and it's and it's true i think that
2:33 am
globally different medical issues present themselves at different rates and the medical systems respond to those things differently in those countries. i remain very convinced that the rules around therapeutic use exemption and the oversight that goes along with those things. are appropriate there and forced and very clearly the athletes that are enabled to use those medications may only use them to the level of returning to normal health which means that the dosage is the dosage is watched very carefully the nature of the drug that's watched is is particularly important and often times the committees that make those decisions advocate the use of other medications that may not provide those those same performance enhancing
2:34 am
benefits that you that you have are describing here so with all of those safeguards in place i think it's more appropriate to allow athletes that have medical conditions to be able to enjoy the benefits of sport. and to participate in sport where they otherwise wouldn't be able to well mr mccrary let me add challenge that because there is still a debate in the scientific community of whether for example carbon fiber prints for statics known as blades give. any advantage and despite oscar pistorius that is pretty safe in the london olympics the athletes have been denied that right specifically because the scientific community believes that there may be an unfair advantage why should they be treated cognitive our neural difficulties. in a presidential way should those athletes if they have those issues be competing in paralympics well again i think the it all starts with establishing the rules and the rules that govern doping are established every four or five years at the
2:35 am
conference that all countries participate in and agree to a set of rules and the standards that support those rules which those standards really bring a lot of body and life to the to the rules from the point of view of how testing should occur the medications that may be permitted the sports specific areas of interest the way laboratories run and so on any country that doesn't agree with the rules that are in place and the rules that are being enforced have the right to argue those with their peers and colleagues on a regular basis and then it's merely enforcing those rules so it seems to me that the issue is whether or not there the rule you would agree with and i think the debate that exists is is clear and that's the nature of an association such as the olympics and such as international sport there are different approaches and
2:36 am
different opinions and we do our best to try and establish a common approach and we share that knowledge freely around the world and for example in canada we have welcomed we have hosted rusa and we hope soon. to bring back in and share all of our information and approaches to this thing so that they can develop the the same type of standards and utilize them if they believe they're helpful within the country so it's a collective approach and i don't think that there's a single right way to proceed in this area other than the common agreement that we all arrive at and agreed to abide by well mr mcquarrie i said to agree with you on that point out only hold that it is not only you who brings recite it to you so desired standard but. once it's reinstated in the right it's good to get those issues and discuss them freely with both american and canadian colleagues unfortunately we have to leave it here we are out of time but i really really
