Mr. Speaker, by all means, no I would not. But I would not be like the province of Ontario which is saying that it does not have any money when in fact it has $300 million sitting in an account. It turned around and took $160 million out and did not spend it on health care. It spent it on tax cuts. That is not my idea of leadership on the health care file.
