    If anything comes of this and we get a comprehensive single payer system it will so many positive effects as we adjust over the course of a decade.

    Something that not many people consider is the effect on business owners and labour:

    business owners will have a lower overhead for their employees insurance

    Labour unions will have better bargaining power because of this cost reduction.

    Ah, so we’ll get pharmacare just after election reform, then?

    You know what? Call them on it. Trigger a confidence vote. Make the LPC decide between “Do we get donor cash because we’re the government” and “Don’t pass pharmacare”

      That would be disastrous for Canadians and better for them to work together since they’re still within the time frame. Not a good time to give Conservatives any chances whatsoever.
