Book Redistributing Money and Power

Download or read book Redistributing Money and Power written by Thomas J. Courchene and published by . This book was released on 1995 with total page 144 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Canada Health and Social Transfer (CHST), introduced in the 1995 federal budget, collapses existing federal transfers to the provinces into a single block transfer and reduces the overall level of the transfer. This book argues that the CHST represents a critical initial step in the direction of preserving and promoting a Social Canada. The book starts with an examination of the mechanics of the transition from the status quo to the CHST, with an emphasis on all-province flows. The book then directs attention to the effects on the individual provinces, including the allocation of CHST entitlements and interactions among entitlements and other transfers. It also examines alternative allocation formulas for 1997/98. Finally, the book responds to criticisms of the CHST in the areas of welfare, health, and postsecondary education, and discusses the role of the CHST in promoting an internal social union.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Now that Ottawa has left health care to the provinces, what is the future for Canadian health care in a decentralized federal context? Is the Canada Health Act dead? Health Care Federalism in Canada provides a multi-perspective, interdisciplinary analysis of a critical juncture in Canadian public policy and the contributing factors which have led to this point. Social scientists, legal scholars, health services researchers, and decision-makers examine the shift from a system where Ottawa has played a significant, sometimes controversial role, to one where provinces have more ability to push health care design in new directions.
