So I like Avi's Public Option proposals. I like them alot actually. But I've seen some people point out the fed-prov responsibilities would likely interfer with that.
Do we just... Make a Healthcare Act + [x public option] transfers for public Grocers and Telecom? (Framework federally, adminstered provincally). Has he said somewhere on how he plans to make that happen yet? #NDP #CanPoli #canada #publicoption #avilewis
I'm not sure what the answer is to your question. But there is a write up of his plans on his site.

Admittedly, that's just an outline. Avi's plan is based on what was laid out by the CCPA:

Regarding jurisdictional issues, they say the following:
"We also have precedents for rapidly dealing with Canada’s jurisdictional issues such as territorial agreements and budget transfers."
They cite the National School Food Program agreements with all provinces and territories as examples.
@markgrieveson thank you! With the national food school progam as a reference point, i have a better idea of how it can be achieved.
I'll have to read up on the CCAP article when i have the time.
