Holt says Ottawa must ensure health deal money goes to fix system

Liberal leader says Higgs is seeking last-minute agreement amid election speculation

Holt says if Premier Blaine Higgs strikes a last-minute agreement with a provincial election looming, Ottawa must ensure the funding goes where it's supposed to.

"The federal government should rightfully expect that the provincial government will spend those dollars on the things they say they will," she said.

Holt says she's been told Higgs will head to the nation's capital Monday to try to clinch the deal.

A new session of the New Brunswick Legislature is scheduled to begin Tuesday with a speech from the throne — a ritual that would not go forward if Higgs opted to call an election, which he has hinted at in recent weeks.

But after days of speculation, including potential candidates from all three parties in the legislature announcing their plans, there's been no call. 

A spokesperson for Higgs said he was not available for an interview Friday on federal-provincial health-care negotiations and did not respond to questions about an Ottawa trip.

Health Minister Bruce Fitch was not available either, his department said.

In a statement, Fitch said the province was "working with the federal government to finalize" an agreement but did not say when it was expected to happen.

Higgs, normally accessible to journalists, has turned down repeated media requests in recent weeks amid speculation he would go to the polls.

Any health deal would be a final version of a broad agreement-in-principle struck between the federal and New Brunswick governments in February.

In a statement, Fitch said the province was 'working with the federal government to finalize' an agreement. (Pierre Richard/Radio-Canada)

It would see a total of $900 million in additional health funding for New Brunswick over 10 years.

Around $91 million of that has already been incorporated into this year's health budget even though precise details of how it will be spent still have to be sorted out.

The province is on track for a $199-million surplus this year, but Holt says Ottawa should not necessarily demand all of that be spent on health care.

"I'm not sure that the federal government should tell the provincial government whether to generate a surplus or how to spend it." 

But attaching conditions to the new health funding would be fair, she added.

Holt says she'd like to see the additional funding spur the development of more community health-care centres. 

"The government has been really slow to advance the model that everyone agrees is the right way to go," she said.

"I certainly hope that this deal finally compels this government to act on the transformation of primary care." 

Under February's agreement-in-principle, new funding must be devoted to four broad areas: family health, worker shortages and backlogs, mental health and addiction, and modernization.

Final agreements with each province were contingent on provincial "action plans" detailing how they'd spend the money and measure if it was leading to improvements.

Federal Health Minister Mark Holland said Thursday following a meeting with his provincial counterparts that the detailed agreements were taking time "because it's got to be done right."

Holland and the provincial ministers agreed to five new "strategies" in their meeting, including a "nursing retention tool kit" for provinces.

Another strategy was reducing the time it takes for health professionals educated overseas to start working in Canada — something New Brunswick has already started on.

In the last year, the province has made it easier for nurses from overseas to work here, expanded the role of pharmacists, approved new clinics doing cataract surgeries outside hospitals and tweaked two virtual primary-care services, eVisit and NB Health Link.

But in key areas, such as wait lists for hip and knee replace surgery, the province continues to fall short of national benchmarks. 

In August the Angus Reid Institute found that New Brunswick's health-care system had the lowest satisfaction level among voters of any province in Canada.

Only 18 per cent of New Brunswickers were "very or moderately satisfied" with their provincial government on health care.

And only nine per cent of respondents said they believed the government was making it enough of a priority, compared to 55 per cent who said it wasn't enough of a priority and 37 per cent who said it wasn't a priority at all.

New Brunswick also had the lowest approval rate of any province for measuring how health care was being delivered. 

A spokesperson for Holland said the minister was happy to hear how "eager" New Brunswick is to reach a deal but did not comment on whether that could happen Monday or on the timing so close to a possible election.

Minister Petitpas Taylor has worked with all orders of government, and focused on local infrastructure development, senior services, and investments in jobs and the local economy. As Canada’s Minister of Health, she also worked on behalf of all Canadians in many challenging areas of public health, including combatting the opioid crisis, creating a science-based Canada’s Food Guide, and overseeing the legalization of cannabis.

Before entering politics, Minister Petitpas Taylor worked for the Canadian Mental Health Association in Saint John, and had a 23-year career as a social worker and Victims Services Coordinator for the Codiac Regional Royal Canadian Mounted Police.

The writer has swung and missed on everything he tries to to stir up controversary where this is none. First it was the French Immersion program, which we know does not work, and it needs to be fixed, this gov't wanted to do it, but they were mistaken in doing it too soon and listened to the people and kept things in place for now. He expected policy changes from the spring to cause huge issues in the schools this fall, there has been NOTHING. House is back in tomorrow, no election happening. We should start calling him the Mighty Casey, we all know what he did.

French immersion does work, you and Higgs just make claims that it doesn’t, that’s where the famous "data my ***" line comes into play. Beating a hasty retreat is not quite the same as listening to the people, had he listened the retreat would not have been required. The policy 713 debacle is now playing out before the courts so time will tell how feisty things will get. Mighty Casey is not the one you think he is, but very apt comparison.

Marcel..French immersion would work much bettter if students were allowed to take conversational French. I know the argument about trying to be bilingual to find work in the government,but not all want to go that route. It would however be great to hear people greeting each other in general conversation without the need to write epistles. So I believe Higgi was right on that one. 
 
 
Ronald Miller
Reply to Marcel Belanger 
No, immersion has been a failure, this has been shown many times. The majority of kids come out of the program failing placement tests, fact. It is also becoming less and less necessary in this province to be forced to learn it. Offer it, great, forcing people to learn it to get a job that really does not require it has always been a waste of money and resources.

Do you know who Jenni is?

Reply to Ralph Skavinsky
The problem with that approach is that there are very few French speaking teachers in many schools. So there would not be enough teachers to teach students conversational French.

Funny how the Libs seemed to be concerned with last minute funding coming from the feds may prop up the books but had no problem with it when it happened for Gallant going into the 2018 election. Difference is, Higgs has been running surpluses year in and year out while Gallant was mired in nothing but deficits. 
 
 
Marcel Belanger 
Reply to Ronald Miller 
False, Gallant had a surplus his last year in power.

They received a bump from the feds and delayed spending, hollow surplus, voters saw through it.  
 
 
Robert Brannen   
Reply to Ronald Miller
So, you are saying that Higgs has been following the Gallant lead.

Reply to Marcel Belanger   
it was a $67 million surplus because of the decrease in spending and the 10 tax rate increases not to mention increase of federal funding.

Reply to Ronald Miller
And Higgs' isn't hollow? 
 
 
Steve Morningstar  
Reply to Clive Gibbons
Higgs has settled a number of contracts that were way over due that Gallant couldn't get done. Created a surplus, cut taxes and put record investment in healthcare. And now that we are out of the crisis of having our credit rating reduced and are sound financially finally, hopefully we can see even more investment and more reduced taxes.
 
 
Marcel Belanger  
Reply to Crystal Ann
Which 10 tax rate increases are you referring to, and if it’s so has the premier removed those 10 tax rate increases or is he just using them to inflate his surpluses. I know he’s decreased spending and is hogging federal funding meant for other purposes than inflating a budget surplus. So basically, doing and amplifying what you blame Gallant of doing. 
 
 
Ralph Skavinsky 
Reply to Marcel Belanger  
If you care to follow the money trail Marcel you will find Ronald Miller is correct. Higgs entered with a total mess instigated by both Gallant and Graham and he cleaned that up.

"Hi Michel... Your post reminds me of the other part that was accused of trying to split the province....The Acadian Party and Bernard Richard. It's obvious both he and Higgs as life evolved had a change of conviction...but don't we all."

The only record Higgs holds in healthcare are record wait times, and record amounts of staff abandoning the field.

The Honourable Ginette Petitpas Taylor


Ginette Petitpas Taylor
Assignment
Minister of Veterans Affairs and Associate Minister of National Defence
Location
Moncton—Riverview—Dieppe

The Honourable Ginette Petitpas Taylor was first elected as the Member of Parliament for Moncton—Riverview—Dieppe in 2015. She has previously served as Minister of Official Languages and Minister responsible for the Atlantic Canada Opportunities Agency, as Minister of Health, and as Parliamentary Secretary to the Minister of Finance.

Minister Petitpas Taylor has worked with all orders of government, and focused on local infrastructure development, senior services, and investments in jobs and the local economy. As Canada’s Minister of Health, she also worked on behalf of all Canadians in many challenging areas of public health, including combatting the opioid crisis, creating a science-based Canada’s Food Guide, and overseeing the legalization of cannabis.

Before entering politics, Minister Petitpas Taylor worked for the Canadian Mental Health Association in Saint John, and had a 23-year career as a social worker and Victims Services Coordinator for the Codiac Regional Royal Canadian Mounted Police. During that time, she provided crisis counselling, domestic violence intervention, and domestic violence risk assessment to victims of crime.
