Mr. Chairman, I certainly appreciate the suggestions made by the Alliance member on how to renew, strengthen and reform our health care system. Most of those suggestions I agree with.
I am really curious about where the Alliance stands when it comes to the issues of management, funding and support of our health care system. Earlier when I raised questions about the Alliance position of support for two tier health care or support for such things as user fees and medical savings accounts, the health critic for the Alliance reacted vehemently and left the impression that the Alliance position had changed.
My question for the member is does the Alliance Party support public not for profit health care? As part of that question, does he agree that it does matter who delivers health care and who controls the corporate structure of a hospital, a health care clinic or any other facility?
