Rallies last week took place all across Canada,
including three events here in Manitoba. We called for the Harper government to
renew the Health Care Accord with Manitoba and every other province and
territory. For Manitoba, $1.3 billion in health care funding is at stake, over
ten years. But it isn’t just about funding, it’s about investing in and
protecting public sector jobs. Prime Minister Stephen Harper is encouraging
provinces to rely on the for-profit sector to deliver health care.
