Mr. Speaker, if I had it my way no tax points would be transferred to provinces for any consideration. By assigning tax points to the provinces we have in effect lost control over federal spending on health care. With the tax points it is absolutely unconditional how provinces spend federal dollars.
If members opposite were to move an amendment to their motion to remove the word unconditional, I guarantee them absolutely that I would vote for their motion. I look forward to the time when they actually take out the word unconditional.
