Federal Health Minister Jean-Yves Duclos said on Dec. 14 that the premiers from provinces and territories are obstructing the process of coming to an agreement with Ottawa on health care in order to maintain the fight over federal health transfers.
“We were in total agreement in Vancouver in private. The problem is that the premiers don’t want us to speak about those outcomes and those results, they want to maintain a futile fight on dollars,” Duclos said in a press conference in Ottawa.
