Mr. Speaker, I am not sure where the member has been.
I would like to thank the hon. member for his question. We are not going to make cuts to health care.
The reality is that we have not reduced transfers for health. In fact, if the member wants to pay attention to what is going on in this country, he can look at the budgets of New Brunswick, Ontario, British Columbia and others that have been released in the past few weeks. He will see that every one of the provinces are planning spending increases for health care of less than 6% and, unbelievably, 2.1%, and it really is unbelievable because the province will be unable to do it, in Ontario.
We are increasing, until 2016, the federal portion of health care spending by 6%.
