I think I'd give cardiologists' the first right to be able to say something like that.
Anyway, the funds have to be there. Most people feel that health care and education are two supremely important things. We just have to make sure we use the funds we have available for those things as wisely as possible.
Just because some people chose to live north of the French River, for example, they shouldn't have access to health care. They're Canadians, after all. We need to make it as feasible as possible.
We don't want to mandate doctors like me to go up there who won't be able to function as a cardiologist full time, but maybe they could make it so that I work from my own community back home.
If these communities can appeal for those sorts of technologies, that's great. That's money very well spent. I'd have to see the whole budget to know what else you should cut, though.
