Mark Carney wants Canada to be more European, but that doesn’t mean ensuring the Canadian public has pharmacare like they do in Europe.

There will be no new federal funding for pharmacare. Provinces and territories will have to go it alone. www.policyalternatives.ca/news-researc... @policyalternatives.ca

Healthcare in Europe is vastly ahead of here, our Healthcare is looks good only in comparison to the Americans. I need dental, a hearing aid and new glasses -- too bad. We don't need to be upset though, rich people still have access to the best and that is who matters to Carney.

I will slightly dispute this. There are European countries where the healthcare system is better, but then you also have countries where it’s a privatized mess like the Netherlands, where everyone still has to pay a deductible to access healthcare.

That's a fair point

Personally, my favourite country for its healthcare system is Brazil, because there, no matter who you are or where you come from, whether you’re a citizen, tourist, or migrant, you get healthcare at no charge whenever you need it.
