Mr. Speaker, cutting transfers is not the way to work with the Quebec government.
The same thing is happening this year. Health care costs keep going up, and the government is heartlessly cutting the health transfer escalator. Now, it wants to put more pressure on the public system by prohibiting access to private clinics, which everyone knows will affect wait times at public institutions.
When will the government let Quebec manage its own health system and stop going after people who use Quebec's health care network?
