Thank you, Mr. Chairman.
In the document that was distributed to us, I see that a number of hospitals like Sainte-Anne were transferred to a number of provinces. Approximately 17 have been transferred to date, including 2 in Quebec.
We know that as soon as the transfer agreement is signed maintenance responsibilities would fall to the Government of Quebec, which would manage collective agreements, services, etc.
When the federal government transfers this type of facility, belonging to Veterans Affairs, to a province, how does it proceed? Is it through a sale or a property transfer, or would a simple signature suffice? Is the facility sold at a certain price?
