I wouldn't characterize that as badgering. I would characterize that as offering thanks to the extent it's due.
What I'm hoping to get at with Mr. Staples is some understanding of the health accord model. We've talked a fair bit about jurisdiction and the requirement to have an interaction between the federal government and provincial governments with respect to health spending. We had a model for this in 2004. It was a 10-year agreement.
When we talk about the Canada health transfer, increases in health funding and how to structure that, I wonder if you could speak to what you think there was of value in the health accord model. What lessons were learned from that period between 2004 and 2014, when it was unilaterally ended by the then federal government under the Conservatives? What could a model look like to introduce some of those questions of accountability between governments for health funding?
