Absolutely yes, but only if equal spending is cut elsewhere and taxes aren't raised to cover it basically canceling it out.
@B23CRQ32wks2W
No, we should only fund natural medicine. Prescription drugs have shown to be addictive and can lead to deaths from overdose.
@9GPVK6G1yr1Y
yes only when it is a high cost, they require the prescription to maintain their health and they cannot afford it
@9GNXXXT1yr1Y
Have a greater discussion with the provinces and territories to discuss how it should be rolled out, and build off of that.
@9GLXDZL1yr1Y
The prescription should be paid by the people who are being prescribed or have someone in need of a prescription.
@9GHTBSS1yr1Y
Yes but No, people could also be drug addicts so I still think you should pay for your medication however if you are not eligible to afford it then it should be covered.
@9G97MP91yr1Y
Ensure that patients will not become addicted, and also ensure that doctors or pharmacists are 100% certain that they are trying to help and not just make money.
@9G6PZWL1yr1Y
Cap the price of drugs, only offer coverage for low-income families for drugs with 0 potential for addiction.
