Mr. Speaker, the hon. minister claims that she does not understand the premise of my question, which is the following.
In the Queen's University report, Mr. Lazar noted that the federal government was not equipped to get directly involved in health care, saying:
It does not have the administrative or bureaucratic capacity to organize the system as well as the provinces, whose jurisdiction it is.
Following this strong endorsement of what the Bloc Quebecois has been saying, should the signal not be given right away that the federal government got the message and will honour its traditional responsibility of properly financing the health care system, period?
