Mr. Speaker, my supplementary question is for the same minister.
The minister is selective in what she will tolerate. Private insurance plans are tolerated, yet the minister intends to stomp out private clinics. In B.C., private cataract eye clinics have been shut down, forcing seniors to be added to unacceptably long public waiting lists.
Why is the minister discriminating against seniors while permitting other private options to continue? Why the inconsistency?
