      <![CDATA[Harper doesn't meet with them because it is a waste of his time - the premiers moan and bitch, ask for more money and when they get 5% more and not the 10% increase they want they go out and call an increase a 'cut'.<br>
Harper just gives them money and allows each province to spend the money as they see fit.<br>
All politics and little progress.

      <![CDATA[1) How did the Harper government "unilaterally" make changes to provincial transfers in 2009 when they didn't have the majority until 2011? Correct me if I'm wrong (please), but wouldn't someone have needed to support them?<br>
<br>
2) Per-capita health care transfers aren't necessarily a bad thing.
