Manage episode 285141886 series 2864608
Regular listeners of the show will know that in just 8 days the House of Commons will be voting on pharmacare for Canadians in the form of Bill C-213. This legislation creates the framework for life saving medication, regardless of ability to pay. It is a step to towards equity in our system, and finishing the job of Universal Medicare envisioned by Tommy Douglas.
On today's drop, we're joined by NDP MP Peter Julian, friend of the show and sponsor of Bill C-213 to discuss the goals of the legislation, the obstacles that stand in the way, and urgent action needed today if we hope to make pharmacare a reality.
