    Very helpful overview. Thanks. One complication to achieving accountability and transparency for healthcare delivery not mentioned is that some provincial jurisdictions fold federal government CHA transfers into general revenues, rather than into health ministry budgets.

    The federal government is responsible for the abysmal state of health care for indigenous people. I always find it amusing when people want the federal government to do more in the health care field given their abysmal track record in indigenous health (and their not much better job of providing health care for our military and their families).
