Mr. Speaker, I would like to know from the minister whether he listened to people in this second national forum on health, which took place this weekend. Before setting other priorities, his first priority should be to provide services and transfers to the provinces, since the provinces look after health care in Canada.
If he considers health a priority, just imagine what sort of priority the government is giving to employment. Health is sick in Canada.
Will the minister make a commitment in this House to listen to members of his own party and give the provinces more money in transfers than they are currently getting?
