The research of Daniel J. Dutton PhD, Pierre-Gerlier Forest PhD, Ronald D. Kneebone PhD, and Jennifer D. Zwicker PhD shows, 

"Using 2011 values for Ontario (the most populous province), a 1-cent increase in social spending for each dollar of health spending would represent an additional $350 million on social spending (an increase of 2.6% in the 2011 level of funding) combined with a decrease of $350 million on health spending (a decrease of 0.8% in the 2011 level of funding). On the basis of the model results, potentially avoidable mortality is predicted to decrease from 197.8 to 197.6 per 100 000 in 2011, which is an additional 3% decrease from the 2010 value of 205.3 per 100 000. Similarly, life expectancy would increase by 0.01% in 2007 (from 81.50 to 81.51 yr), which is an additional increase of 5% from the 2006 level of 81.3 years." (pg E68)
