Feb 23, 2023 | 8:26 AM

The federal government says it has reached an agreement in principle with Ontario on health care.

No further details were immediately available after the government made the announcement Thursday morning in a tweet.

Canada’s premiers agreed earlier this month to accept Ottawa’s offer of more than $46 billion to augment the Canada Health Transfer. 

The federal government was working out separate bilateral deals with the provinces and territories to address needs specific to each jurisdiction.
