I agree that public money should be going to public care and not to for-profit care, but I think we should also be clear that nothing in the Canada Health Act prohibits for-profit delivery. It only requires public administration by a not-for-profit agency. If we're looking to the Canada Health Act for protection against public money going into for-profit care, then I don't think that's the place to go.
I do think our strategy ought to be raising the standards and making sure that those standards are met and enforced and based on verified data. We've talked a lot about data, but those data have to be verified. We have to make sure—and this came out in the report by the seniors advocate in B.C.— there's a very strong emphasis on verified data, because she argued, convincingly I think, that the data, especially around staffing, for instance, was not verified. I think we should be raising the standards to an extent that there isn't room for profit.
One other thing: it's a pattern. Not all for-profits are terrible, not all municipal homes are wonderful. We're talking about patterns, as we always are in any health or social service.
