Madam Speaker, in a little more than nine months, the new formula for health transfers will come into force, and it will deprive the provinces of $36 billion. During the election campaign, the Liberals said that they would renegotiate the transfers. Now is the time to take action.
The premiers of Quebec and Saskatchewan have even said publicly that this takes time and have called for an increase to the transfers.
When will the Liberals take this seriously? The future of our health care system is at stake.
