Asking the federal government for more money that can be spent on any prov priority is not much of a plan. Healthcare has to be reconstructed completely. Canada spends more than many countries, but with poorer outcomes.

I'm disgusted by the horrific way my Federal liberal_party Gov. in Ottawa is treating Canada Premiers like crap re: our national health care underfunding. How REPUGNANT of JustinTrudeau cafreeland! You sent $1B to non NATO Ukraine instead💀 cdnpoli

Good luck with that

Political talking points for decades as the population is increased through immigration the govt. failed to increase healthcare funding and failed to increase education system to open more spaces for doctors and nurses . Now we are so far behind only drastic measures will help .

Ford &Kenney lost,misplaced,gave away 9+ BILLION in Federal HC 💰 As Kenney was asking our nurses to take a pay roll back he sat on 4 BILLION. Nurse’s and Doctors are leaving in droves,ambulance services are cut back. He did this deliberately to push privatizing our HC system.

Ontario cannot account for federal funds granted during covid crisis. Why would Feds send them billions more with no strings attached?

Doesn't health care Always top the agenda when these guys meet? Or more accurately, how to pay less by making the Feds pay more? Not really news any longer.

Health care funding. Should do a lot more to keep people healthy then get back to us. Privatize profits, socialize costs.

🤷‍♂️🙄

So long as the Conservative premiers spend the money on healthcare and not some wasteful thing, like corporate welfare and buying votes

Yes lets give more money to our crappy system so the bureaucrats running it can get a raise.

The premiers who collectively dropped all covid protection and now are crying that they want more money. What are they going to spend it on? None of them have a plan to stop the covid spread!

Premiers gather in Victoria to present united demand for more health-care cash | CBC NewsCanada’s premiers gather today for two days of meetings in Victoria, British Columbia, where they're expected to focus on their demand for more health-care funding from the federal government. The crappy Canadian system needs reform not more money. I have no issue with doing all we can for Ukraine & every other country...but increasingly I am hearing people say. ' why won't our gov help fix our health care system'? Trudeau made election promises around helping Canada health care! Healthcare is a Provincial responsibility. Be adults and make the tough decisions at your own level of government instead of going to the Feds asking for more money.
