Mr. Speaker, that is more disinformation from a flailing and desperate Prime Minister clinging to power.
I voted in this Parliament to increase health funding, and in the previous government voted to increase it by 70%, more than the Prime Minister's government has.
More than that, Conservatives did not impose a carbon tax on hospitals. He claims that people are going to get cheques, but 1,900 nurses could lose their jobs because of the carbon tax in one province alone. A phony rebate cheque will not make the difference. Now he wants to quadruple the tax to 61ยข litre.
How many nurses are going to lose their job while hospitals are stuck paying the quadrupling tax?
