Can Canada learn from the NHS? The answer is a resounding yes. Here are the CMA's top 10 lessons from the NHS: Commit to measuring. It is often said that "you can't manage what you can't measure." The NHS measured activity levels and wait times long before it had the capacity and political commitment to deal with them. In Canada, waiting lists continue to focus mainly on the five priorities set out in the First Ministers' 2004 Accord and there is a lack of comparability of data across jurisdictions.

Quebec Health Minister Philippe Couillard said that Quebecers will not approve of tax increases. The government did not, however, reject outright opening the system to greater involvement of the private sector.

AFTER 35 years of shrugging at each other, the City of Winnipeg and the province could be close to finally deciding which level of government is responsible for public health inspections in Manitoba's capital city. Right now, both the city and province deliver this service in different regions of the capital -- evidence of just how dysfunctional the relationship between the city and the province truly is. The province will provide about $188 million in grants to the city to help pay for civic services this year alone. There are grants for the operation of Winnipeg Transit, repair of critical infrastructure, the hiring of police officers, ambulances, libraries, mosquito fogging, and Dutch Elm disease control. These do not include an array of other essentially civic services (after-schoo...
