Mr. Speaker, in an earlier question to the Minister of Health, the minister asked me to come forward with examples of where I felt the Canada Health Act was being violated by private for profit clinics. A number of examples have been brought to the minister's attention in the recent past.
Is the minister really saying that, in his view, there is nothing happening now in these for profit private clinics that violates the Canada Health Act? Is there nothing under investigation by his department pursuant to the Canada Health Act? Could the minister clear that up for us? Would he tell us what he thinks of situations where things are being deemed not medically necessary, like MRIs, where people have to pay $600 if they want to have one immediately rather than waiting for nine months?
