Public Pharmacare Now! South Shore Town Hall
October 3, 2023 @ 7:00 pm
“Sky-high drug prices are forcing millions of people to choose between paying rent, buying food, or getting their medications. And, at the same time, Big Pharma greed is siphoning billions of dollars from our crumbling public health care system. Join us for this town hall to explore both the personal and political sides of the fight for pharmacare. Learn how we can turn into reality the dream of a public, universal drug plan giving access to prescription drugs to everyone. It won’t happen without a fight. Hear from Bill Swan, patient advocate and founder of Faces of Pharmacare, and Robin Tress, interim Co-Executive Director of the Council of Canadians, who will explore both the personal and the political sides of the fight for universal pharmacare. They will be joined by local presenters. There will also be opportunities for people to share their own experiences and to find out what Pharmacare would mean for them.”
