Quebec Premier François Legault said on Feb. 7 he wants Ottawa to increase health transfers with no strings attached, but is open to sharing the province’s health data, one of the conditions spelled out previously by the Trudeau government.

“We don’t want conditions, what we want is to be able to apply our plan, we already have a plan for healthcare in Quebec, and we need more financing from the federal government,” Legault told reporters in Ottawa before a meeting of the premiers with Prime Minister Justin Trudeau.
