Every year these reports come out with huge gaps in information about how provinces are spending federal money on public health care.

And yet we know that the number of private clinics is growing

rapidly. We know that people are being charged for medically

necessary services.

It’s up to Parliament to enforce the law that guarantees Canadians equal access to public health care.

We need people to ask their MPs to ask questions in the house, to lobby the health minister, and to stand up for medicare, Canadians’ most cherished social program.
