"en": "<p data-HoCid=\"8429380\" data-originallang=\"fr\">Mr. Speaker, the federal government covered more than 80% of the cost of the pandemic, an absolutely enormous cost. It was essential. This created an imbalance in the fiscal situations at the provincial and federal levels. Now, the provinces are in a good position to invest money in their systems. That is the case in Quebec. There is a decent health care plan in Quebec, which is a leader in many areas of health.</p>\n<p data-HoCid=\"8429381\" data-originallang=\"fr\">Given that we have invested nearly $200 billion, I would say the money is there, but it is not just a question of money. It is a question of transformation, of changing the way health care services are made available. It is also very important to prevent illness. That is the motivation behind our dental care plan. Access to drugs is absolutely essential as well.</p>",

Or ce n'est pas seulement une question d'argent. C'est une question de transformation, de changement dans la fa\u00e7on dont les services de sant\u00e9 sont disponibles. C'est \u00e9galement tr\u00e8s important de pr\u00e9venir des maladies. C'est la raison pour laquelle nous avons agi concernant les soins dentaires. L'acc\u00e8s aux m\u00e9dicaments est absolument essentiel aussi.</p>"
