Health Canada has named the two people who will lead a review team looking into the cases of four men switched at birth in a northern Manitoba hospital. Additionally, Calvin James Bergen, the family doctor of two of the men, will assist with the review, Health Canada officials said. "The department takes this issue very seriously and is committed to supporting the individuals and families affected by these traumatic events," said a statement released by Health Canada on Thursday. "While the RCMP's activities are separate from Health Canada's review, the department will fully co-operate with this investigation." The review team will examine hospital records and contact individuals who were involved at that time in an effort to "clarify the circumstances of the known cases," the Health Canada statement says, adding the results will be made public.
