Mr. Speaker, will the minister finally realize that we are talking about human beings?
His answers are inconsistent and misleading. Here are the facts: more and more provinces are criticizing the irresponsible cuts to health care for refugees. Quebec, Manitoba, Ontario and Saskatchewan have all spoken out against these cuts.
Cash-strapped provinces will send the bill to Ottawa, because people need health care and the provinces have hearts, unlike the Conservatives.
Since the minister will end up stuck with the bill anyway, why not cancel these irresponsible and cruel cuts?
