Carney’s government is maintaining its billions in health transfers to the provinces at their current level.

The cuts are for:

• the Public Health Agency of Canada (PHAC); 

• the National Strategy for Drugs for Rare Diseases; 
• the Emergency Treatment Fund, which provides assistance to Indigenous communities and municipalities to deal with the opioid crisis; 
• a 10-year $6 billion federal contribution to home and community care; 
• and the Canadian Drugs and Substances Strategy.

Ramping down the COVID one is ok but the ones supporting indigenous community are questionable

The government does not have to actively axe most of these programs. With the exception of PHAC, they are all slated to expire this year or next.

Carney’s team can simply let them all lapse, despite the continuing and acute health needs throughout the country. And as far as we can tell, letting them quietly expire seems to be the Carney team’s current plan.

Federal programs with existing expiry dates is not the same as slashing, and the source is vibes, wtf. So someone bring this up in QP and so they can't "let them quietly expire", but there is no slashing going on.

Might as well not have any public health at this point. What would be the difference?

Man, fuck conservatism. And fuck this guy for further eroding our social safety net.

"hE wAs ThE bEsT cHoIcE aT tHe TiMe" my ass. Even with Singh we wouldn't have had this kind of shit. And Trump would've had a meltdown having to deal with a brown skinned turban-wearing prime minister and it would have been hilarious.
