Pharmacare

In Canada, Pharmacare is a proposal for a publicly funded insurance program for medications, similar to Medicare for health insurance.
Limited pharmacare programs exist in the provinces of Ontario, Manitoba and British Columbia. Multiple organizers and commenters have advocated a pan-Canadian pharmacare program to complement the existing health system, but the precise model for implementation is unclear. 
In 2019, Prime Minister Justin Trudeau promised to implement pharmacare if re-elected. , this pledge is unfulfilled.
