premise: The richest provinces, Ontario, Alberta and B.C, have spent billions on tax cuts and slashing services while at the same time howling for Ottawa to give them more money for medicare.
hypothesis: Ottawa has plenty more money to offer for medicare.
reason: The statement is in the correct category because while the excerpt says that the other provinces want more medicare money from Ottawa, it does not say how much funding Ottawa actually has available. The system may have had difficulty due to no specifics being given in the excerpt.
