Thank you very much, Mr. Chair.
Dr. Boucher, the Canada health transfer used to account for 35% of the costs of the system. This percentage has decreased to 22%, and it will decrease further to 18%.
I grew up in a small town near Senneterre, Abitibi. Today, people no longer have access to a family doctor, and the hospital is closed. They no longer have access to delivery rooms. In fact, access to health services is very difficult for families.
In your opinion, if the Canada health transfer were restored to a level that would cover 35% of the system's costs, what would the impact be in terms of actual services for Quebec families living in the regions?
