Elbows Up Pants Down; Carneys budget reduces health transfers.

The Canadian Union of Public Employees' budget analysis said that means the overall share of federal funding going toward provincial and territorial health budgets will decrease over the next five years.

. Don Drummond, an adjunct professor of policy studies at Queen’s University, said the rolling average for health transfers likely means the transfers will stay around three per cent per year "given our weak productivity range."

He said federal governments seem increasingly uninterested in handing over billions of dollars without getting the credit from voters.

"They want to have a much more direct intervention in health care," he said. "And that's why you see they've carved out part of the infrastructure money for health infrastructure, why they're into the dental plan."
