Abstract

The article explores the state of the Canadian health care system as of February 2014, when the federal government completely disengaged from health policy and health system planning, leaving it in the hands of the governments of provinces and territories. Topics discussed include the Canadian Senate's failure to improve the health system of the country as seen with its lack of action related to the Interim Federal Health Program (IFHP). Also mentioned are health benefits of suspended senators.
