“Madam Speaker, I appreciate my colleague’s speech on this important issue today. I was particularly interested in the part about health care transfers. It is not a big ask for the provinces in order to provide the health care that Canadians deserve. It does fall under provincial jurisdiction, but they are asking the federal government for health transfers. I would like to know the member’s opinion on the fact that we are spending more taxpayer dollars on servicing our debt than we are on health care transfers in this country.”
