In your report on the main estimates 2022-23, you noted that the Canada health transfer, which is obviously the largest transfer between the provinces and territories, is set to increase by $2.1 billion, or 4.8%, to $45.2 billion in this fiscal year.
You projected that by 2026-27, transfers will reach about $56.1 billion to cover rising health care costs. As you know, the provincial and territorial premiers have asked the federal government to increase its share of health care costs through the health transfer.
Should the formula used to calculate the health transfer be revised?
