Guest host Rubina Ahmed-Haq is joined by Senior Fellow Dr. Shawn Whatley, a practicing physician & Author of When Politics Comes Before Patients – Why and How Canadian Medicare is Failing.
Rubina and Dr. Whatley discuss why all the Premiers from the Provinces and Territories are meeting in Vancouver, and why the federal Canada Health Transfer is a big ticket on the table.
“Buried within this whole discussion for this meeting that’s going on in Victoria is not just about funding, but funding and control,” says Dr. Whatley. “On the one side the provinces want more money without a ton of accountability … and the feds want more control without having to pay for it.”
