Mr. Speaker, it is not very difficult to get unanimous agreement that the government should restore the huge cuts it made to health care since 1995. It is hardly leadership to put back the money that it took out of the system.
There is a lack of prompt, quality health care in the country. People are on waiting lists. Our equipment is obsolete. Even third world countries will not take it. Something needs to be done.
The minister keeps talking about the long term. Canadians are suffering now. What is being done and what can the government do to help?
