Premiers call for $28-billion more in health care funding

“All provinces feel the same way: Give us the money, and we’ll deliver health care [in] the most effective, most efficient way,” Mr. Ford said. “We all have our different needs.”

“We are joined by Newfoundland and Labrador, Saskatchewan and other resource-producing provinces in facing a real crisis,” Mr. Kenney said Friday; he has added to his initial request for $2.4-billion in retroactive payments under the fund, to more than $6-billion, based on events in 2020. Mr. LeBlanc said that the premiers did not request a meeting with the federal government Friday to discuss their demands. However, he said Prime Minister Justin Trudeau has already expressed a willingness to speak with premiers this fall about increasing health care transfers.

So they can cut taxes and look good at election time!

What is fordnation doing with the $10.8B already distributed by the Federal Gov't?

Kind of wonder what happened to being self sufficient, living within means and being responsible with avoiding ill fated lifestyles as per Christian principles. Now since money is thrown around like it grows on trees, everybody seems to be asking with hands out. Simple caring

Why, so the Manitoba premier can put it away in Costa Rica?

That’s because they will need lots of healthcare funding after so many people get injured and die from the vaccine. WTFU people!

Here's how the feds could raise some cash - Divert lottery revenues to healthcare - Introduce a lottery tax on winnings over a million - Cut foreign aid - Defund the CBC - Slash arts funding

Kenney in there even though he's been gutting Alberta's health care in the path to privatization

The right call. This is not a good time for Trudeau green scams😡

This was an issue even before the pandemic so its common sense that it would have gotten worse

CUT THE FAT IN THE SYSTEM
