“Mr. Speaker, legal experts just confirmed what New Democrats have been warning for months: Alberta’s private health care law violates the Canada Health Act. Danielle Smith’s two-tier scheme lets wealthy patients pay to jump the line, while everyone else waits longer. This breaks a core principle of public health care: access must be based on need, not ability to pay. Upholding this value is the federal government’s job, but the Liberals have refused to do it. Why is the Prime Minister doing nothing while Conservatives dismantle public health care?”
