Just because you're quoting someone accurately doesn't mean you're not twisting their words. He's very obviously saying they should spend the money on something that directly serves patients. A building you go to in order to receive health services from a physician - Foothills or Rocky View. Instead, the NDP propose to spend that money on a facility that performs analysis and provides the results to physicians, which is currently a function primarily performed by private third parties. That is accurate.
Whether he's RIGHT about that being a bad idea is a separate matter. His actual statement isn't inaccurate unless you want to mischaracterize it, which as I said, is asinine dishonesty.
