Spring Election: Tories

Budget Dept: The Tories promised during the spring election to boost health-care spending by six per cent for at least two years after the current agreement expires in 2014, according to CTV. She says the Tories didn't pay much attention to Ontario in the budget and deb Matthews says the budget was a missed chance to signal that the Harper government was willing to hammer out a new 10-year accord with the provinces.
