Mr. Speaker, it is an honour to present a petition signed by many Canadians who feel strongly about our health care system.
The petitioners want to see the government enforce the Canada Health Act and the five principles of medicare.
They feel so strongly about our health care system that they call upon parliament to enshrine the Canada Health Act and the five principles of medicare in the Canadian constitution to guarantee national standards of quality publicly funded health care for every Canadian citizen as a right.
