Madam Speaker, the partisan diatribe is quite disappointing today.
The provinces' difficulty is the prioritization of the cuts the government made primarily on their backs. Are those cuts to his liking?
I think of the fisheries department which has some 6,000 people employed, most of them in Ottawa. It has been a disgrace the way the fish stocks have been destroyed on both coasts.
Is this the kind of prioritization the federal government approves of, when people are not able to get into hospital and once they do get there they are not able to get the treatment they need?
