HEALTH ACT
UNNECESSARY
SAYS NIELSEN

VICTORIA (CP) — A new Canada Health Act with
dollar-for-dollar penalties to discourage extra billing by
doctors and hospitals-user fees is an election ploy by the
Liberal government, British Columbia Health’ Minister
dim Nielsen said Tuesday. }

But it is not likely to succeed, he told a news
conference, : e

“T'm quite sure that the Liberal federal government
would very much like to see medicare as the major issue
of the next election but I don't think it’s going to be.”

Nielsen said the bill, given first reading in the
Commons on Monday, is a (delightful piece of window
dressing” that is completely unnecessary.

If carried out, he said, it would further complicate
the medical care system in Canada, and establish a
“reasonable new bureaucracy.” ‘

The minister said the B.C. government has no
intention of eliminating hospital-user fees, but would not
defy the new act if it should get Commons’ approval.

WON'T DEFY LAW i

“There are many alternatives,” he said, and the
Social Credit government will decide what to do after it
has had a chance to examine the regulations to find out
exactly what will be covered. :

“You don't defy the law of the land but you might
assist in determining whether it’s valid," he said.

The British Columbia health minister said the federal
government appears to be trying to rewrite existing
agreements unilaterally, and lawyers will be looking to
me if the bill contravenes the charter of rights and other

WS.

He said the difference in coverage ‘that would be
required under the new act would be almost negligible.

“The existing coverage is probably better than the
act, would require, and the services available to people
would not improve in British Columbia over what's
-available to them now.”

The minister said arguments put forward by federal
Health Minister Monique Begin in favor of the new bill
are unconvincing.

“The federal government in its throne speech talked
about a new era of co-operation, the new act seems to
contravene that concept.”

One of the weakness of the political side, he said, is
that the provinces have not been together on all issues,

“I think probably Monique has done something the
country has been trying for years, and that is to really
weld the provinces together on an issue.”

“I'm sorry this will’be the last supper — for some of

He said the question that remains d is

“Who are these people who are being denied access

“A country is not strong because of the size of its armies
and it’s not powerful because of its great balance sheets,” he
said. ‘A country can be influential in the world by the size of
its heart and the breadth of its mind.

“That's the role Canada can play.”

Trudeau said he was less worried about the Tories’
reluctance to make specific policy proposals than by their
record of i ‘p and their
inclination to please vested interests such as provinces,
business and the United States.

years at a party event, praised tough decisions-by Liberal

Medical experts have tes-

Olson said he could have

based his diasnosis on a quick

“I assumed the skull bones
were jammed together.”
