Nova Scotia Premier Tim Houston says health care is the main agenda item as he hosts Canada’s premiers and territorial leaders, including Premier Dennis King, at a meeting in Halifax Monday. Houston says the discussions will focus on health care innovations in the hopes of producing ideas that can help provinces address the problems plaguing the health system.
The premier says there will also be opportunity to discuss other issues such as federal carbon pricing and Alberta’s proposal to withdraw from the Canada Pension Plan.
The premiers and territorial leaders arrived yesterday and are set to have meetings throughout the day today.
