Mr. Speaker, I am quite pleased to hear that the hon. member is in favour of medicare as we have it in Canada. I suggest though that he speak with other members of his party who do not appear to share his views.
We will continue to insist that the Canada Health Act remain in place. It has served the people of Canada very well. It will continue to do so despite the protestations of the people from the third party who have absolutely no understanding of what it is like to be ill and not have the money to be treated. We refuse to allow our system to go back to that kind of inequity.
