Madam Speaker, my question for my colleague is one that I will repeat many times for many of his colleagues within the Conservative Party. They have made it very clear that they do not support spending on things like pharmacare, dental care and supports for seniors, and I am wondering how he justifies that to his constituents in New Brunswick. How does he justify that he does not think the people in his constituency deserve dental care?

Madam Speaker, I am sorry about this, but I am going to speak in French, because it is important to try. The federal government has reduced its share of funding over many years, leaving hospitals with a shortfall of several billions of dollars. Does the member think that the federal government should restore its share of the funding and increase health transfers to the provinces?
