Mr. Speaker, the finance ministers of the provinces generally said to me that they thought health care was the leading priority.
Their first priority was to get the $2 billion that had been committed conditionally last year. That of course has been done, $2 billion, and it is the subject of legislation in the House right at this moment. This will make sure that the provinces can receive those funds, each one of them within the fiscal year that is most advantageous to them.
On top of that, the first ministers have all agreed on a process leading toward greater sustainability in health care to be pursued this spring and summer.
