Mr. Speaker, the Conservatives continue to turn a blind eye to the challenges facing northern communities. It is incredible.
By backing out of the partnership in public health and social well-being, which consists of 11 countries, the Conservatives are denying northern communities an important resource to fight the spread of tuberculosis, alcohol and drug addiction, high rates of diabetes, and malnutrition.
Why are the Conservatives refusing to co-operate with the other governments so that we can work together to tackle the health problems facing northern communities?
