Madam Speaker, I thank my colleague from Salaberry—Suroît for her excellent question.
I did not have time to do so during my speech, but I had planned to give some examples of times when the federal government tried to interfere in matters in Quebec by asking the province to take action in the area of health. Every time, the action the federal government asked Quebec to take was not in line with its reality or that of the other provinces. For example, when it comes to drugs, injection drugs and marijuana were issues that caused conflict.
Quebec is clearly in the best position to understand the interests of seniors and the hard-working staff in its health care system.
I worked in the community sector. I worked with organizations and the health care system. What people repeatedly told me was that they needed funding.
