No pharmacare bill this year would be a deal-breaker, says NDP Leader Jagmeet Singh | National Newswatch

OTTAWA — New Democrat Leader Jagmeet Singh says if the Liberal government does not introduce a pharmacare bill in the House of Commons this year, he will consider it a deal-breaker.

Both parties signed a confidence-and-supply agreement last March, in which the NDP agreed to support the minority Liberal government in key votes until 2025. In exchange, the Liberals would advance some NDP priorities, including by passing pharmacare legislation by the end of this year.He says his party would also withdraw their support of the Liberal government if they do not expand dental care this year.

Singh says he wants to see dental coverage expanded for teens, seniors and those living with a disability, which is also spelled out in the agreement between both parties.

When I am Prime Minister…🤣🤣🤣🤣

Really Jagmeet? You wouldn’t last two seconds in a real life scenario where you had to man up and talk truth, or get the s&it beat out of you. The real world is watching and you don’t pass the stink test.

Anyone else tired of Jagmeet saying there are ‘red lines’ that he will no longer tolerate? 🙄

Am I the only one so fed up with Jugmeet Singh. He is at this point tiresome!

Only a year to go
