The House of Commons health committee has requested an audit of the federal government’s interim federal health program, which cost nearly $800 million last year to cover medical claims by refugee claimants and immigration detainees.
Conservative MP Dan Mazier sponsored the motion at a Nov. 20 health committee meeting asking the auditor general to conduct the audit. He said the purpose of the audit is to examine the “significant increase in cost, usage, and impacts on provincial health care systems,” and he asked that it be completed by Feb. 7, 2026.
