This is a very specific situation that the other provinces do not have.
Since last year, I have been the co-chair of the health sub-committee that is part of the regional cooperation between Atlantic Canada and Saint Pierre and Miquelon. The committee’s mandate is to further the work in health being done with the authorities on the Saint Pierre and Miquelon archipelago. For 30 years, residents of the archipelago have been coming to Newfoundland in medical evacuation situations. They come to Newfoundland more than 1,000 or 1,100 times per year for health care that is not available on the archipelago because their hospital does not have specialists in all fields.
So areas like that provide us with health funding in Canada that we can use as leverage for services of that kind.
