À propos de cet audio
Despite ongoing political promises for pharmacare in Canada, the status quo persists: Canada remains the only high-income country where health-care services are publicly insured but medications are not. The pandemic propelled temporary sick leave protections, however many of these protections are now coming to an end. In this episode, Nav Persaud (MAP scientist and Canada Research Chair in Health Justice) speaks with Linda Silas (President of the Canadian Federation of Nurses Unions) about the impacts on Canada's workers, and the need for continued advocacy for stronger safety nets in Canada. Public funding for prescription medication, as well the universal availability of unemployment, parental, and sick leave, are recommendations in MAP's Equity Roadmap Report.
