Madam Speaker, my colleague said that the government listened to the voices of Canadians and kept their interests in mind in its throne speech.
How does he explain the fact that the government turned a deaf ear to the call to increase health transfers, when 81% of Quebeckers and 73% of Canadians are calling for an increase and all the experts who appeared before the committee told us that the chronic underfunding over the past 25 years has weakened our health care systems' ability to deal with this pandemic?
Is that what it means to listen to the voice of the public and stand up for their interests in a throne speech?
