Mr. Speaker, that is hard to believe when the Prime Minister has been ignoring the request of the provinces to meet since July.
The Liberals promised that they would not make any changes without negotiating with the provinces. In opposition, the Liberal health critic called the 50% cut to the health escalator walking away from medicare. However, now in government, the Liberals have adopted that very reduction, and unilaterally will remove $36 billion from health care and continue to ignore requests for a meeting.
Could the minister please explain how this is real change?
