Parliament Video: Jenny in QP: Will the Liberals support our Bill to bring in Pharmacare?

On Feb 24, 2020, I rose in Question Period to ask:

Jenny Kwan (NDP) Vancouver East, BC

"Mr. Speaker, the Liberals have been promising pharmacare for 23 years. People end up in the ER or hospitalized because they cannot afford their medication and hundreds die prematurely every year.

Instead of helping Canadians, the Liberals have chosen to help deliver bigger and bigger profits to big pharma and insurance companies. In the minority government will the Liberals stop breaking their promise and support the NDP bill to deliver universal, comprehensive, single-payer pharmacare to Canadians?"
