Speaking from the Chateau Laurier in Ottawa on Friday, Ontario Premier Doug Ford, Québec Premier François Legault, Manitoba Premier Brian Pallister, and Alberta Premier Jason Kenney are holding a joint press conference laying out their priorities for the months ahead. “Nothing right now is more important to Canadians than health care because without health care we have nothing. If we don't have our health, we don't have an economy, and my friends, we're here to ask the federal government, to step up to the plate,” Ford said. “As a demand is increasing the support from the federal government has been going down.”
The Liberals are opening a new session of Parliament on Wednesday, with a speech from the throne. Delivered by Governor General Julie Payette, the speech will outline the federal government’s priorities for the months ahead. It’s also expected to signify a shift in priorities due to the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic.
I would love to have a government that shows integrity, empathy and intelligence. Maybe next time!
And so they should. Justin wastes billions on his 'Canada is back' laughable projects like the botched UN security seat, yet Canadians struggling to get tested for the virus. Time to stop throwing taxpayers money all over the planet and take care of Canadians. TrudeauMustGo
Guess Doug needs a new winter house.
Ontario wants a commitment from fordnation to make our schools safe. Trudeau gave you the money’
Trump sent $13 Billion to Puerto Rico in ADDITIONAl Aid - Still thinking Separation Alberta?
Theres no money
ontario for instance takes in abt $154 billion dollars per annum close to 50% of what the feds take in (for the whole of canada) so wtf is ontario doing wit duh money
Why was this not done in 1990s when funding for LTC was cut!
it is important to be accurate. Your report implies that a few Conservative Premiers speak for all Premiers. This is an insult to the citizens in the Provinces who did not show up hat in hand. They stayed home to address the crisis in their Regions.

I'd like the Premier to spend the extra money he got for schools, from the Feds, on our schools. About damn time on the health transfer, but seeing as I'm seeing no benefit in that extra funding for schools, I have zero faith in him using it for health care. UnsafeSeptemberON
Excellent physical distancing and mask wearing skills.
Yes, no healthcare in Ontario should be laying off nurses right now, yet I hear thats exactly whats happening. BS.
