Madam Speaker, I am surprised to get that question from my hon. colleague. The fact is that we have a new contract that will go into effect at the end of November. There will be 9,000 health professionals in 600 locations across the country. What we are doing as a government is providing the services for veterans where veterans need the services. It would be totally irresponsible to cancel that contract.

Mr. Speaker, I have a question for the member. I did not see any funds for health care in Bill C-32. Is the member concerned that the government is not doing enough for health care?

Mr. Speaker, I thank my colleague for her good question. The Bloc Québécois has not forgotten about health. It is important for the federal government to deliver health transfers. All the ministers met with the government to discuss this, but no action was taken. This is important because we see what is happening in hospitals everywhere, both in Quebec and elsewhere in Canada. Everyone is exhausted. It is important that the government finally take action on health transfers.
