Madam Speaker, I thank my colleague for her question. We can talk about money in the House all day if we want to, but until we begin to operationalize things, we are not going to see any change. I think one of the worst things we could possibly do in Canada is start comparing ourselves to an American system. We know that the American system is based on private care. We know that people do not have access. We know it is very costly. The United States spends more money on health care than anybody else in this world. To think we need to allow our system to collapse more than it has and adopt an American-style system would be a disservice to all Canadians.
