Mr. Speaker, I believe Canadians know that if we are going to solve the problems in medicare it will take more than just more money.
The NDP may believe that the answer is simply to pour billions more into a system that is not serving Canadians well. I can tell the member and the House that we believe, and I think Canadians agree, that we need a plan, a long term solution to make the system sustainable, as well as long term financing.
Tomorrow we will begin a process, which may last several months, of working on that common plan toward common financing with all governments in the country.
