Mr. Speaker, first, I will not hold his hand. Second, I have not heard this much self-serving rhetoric in a long time.
We do not have to amend the Canada Health Act to allow the provinces to get their fiscal houses in order. As a matter of fact, it is very important that we maintain the principles of the Canada Health Act as we all get our fiscal houses in order so that we can remember who we are here to represent. It is the people, all kinds of people; wealthy people, sick people and everyone else in the country.
