The federal New Democrats plan to make pharmacare a central issue in the next election if the Liberals do not meet the bar the opposition party has set for legislation to reduce the cost of prescription drugs.

He can and should press the libs on pharmacare but even a compromise would be better than no pharmacare for at least another 4 years.

I disagree. There's no point in the "coalition" if they can't get their one goal.

They have several goals and anything is better than giving power to Conservatives who are actively sabotaging Canadians.

Maybe that would wake people up enough to do something.

I'm sick of making shitty incremental process all the time when people need actual change put in place, all because "it's better than nothing".
