Mr. Speaker, the member spoke about funding for health care. Of course, ideally, we would always like to see more money go to these things. There is also a question of how the money is used.
We had a case where under the Liberal government, a vast stockpile of PPE was destroyed and not replaced. We had a case that was reported where the Public Health Agency of Canada, which was supposed to be responsible for pandemic preparedness, used money to fund climate change programs. We would normally think of that as falling under the umbrella of Environment Canada, but climate change programs were funded through the Public Health Agency of Canada and yet the health minister has admitted that we were not prepared for this situation.
Would the member agree that we should also be having a discussion about how the federal government could be planning ahead and using the resources we have effectively? For example, it should use money intended for public health for public health purposes and it should not destroy vital PPE.
