The Liberal leader was in Fredericton, New Brunswick this morning to talk about health care.
Justin Trudeau says everyone will have health care under a newly elected Liberal government.
“We will ensure that all Canadians have access to a family doctor or a primary care team not only that but we will also continue to improve access to home care and palliative care,” stated Trudeau.
The Liberal leader was drawn into the controversy surrounding the pending closure of Clinic 554, the only privately operated abortion services clinic in New Brunswick.
Trudeau says “Liberals will ensure that the province will allow paid for access to clinics that offer abortion services outside of hospitals, I will sit down with Premier Blaine Higgs if re-elected and let him know that we will use all tools at our disposal including tools that exist under the Canada Health Act”.
The Liberal leader also touched on the sudden rise in support for two parties.
“In terms of the NDP and the Greens, remember this if you want a progressive action, you need a progressive government, not a progressive opposition voting Liberal is the only way to stop conservative cuts,” stated Trudeau.
