That's a very hypothetical question. It would be quite hazardous for me to try to answer because it depends on what would have been, what assumptions we make as to what the level of transfers would have been in the absence of past policy actions. For sure, if the health transfers were higher than they are now, the provinces would be in a better position. That being said, it depends on the magnitude of these higher transfers as to whether it would be significant or not that significant an improvement in provincial fiscal situations.
