Fredericton Pharmacare Town Hall Public Event (with Avi Lewis)

  • 732 Charlotte Street Fredericton, NB (map)

Public pharmacare would truly be life-changing for more than 3.4 million people in Canada who currently can’t afford to take their medication as prescribed, and the millions more for whom high drug prices are an incredible financial burden.

We need pharmacare, and we need it now. The Council of Canadians is collaborating with regional and local organizations across the country to organize town halls spotlighting the many, many stories of people struggling with the high cost of medication.

Join us and help get this critical expansion of public health care across the finish line!

An outspoken activist and a seasoned broadcaster, Avi Lewis will be joined by patient advocate Bill Swan, Dr. Adrian Edgar, Shelly Petit and other guests. Organized in collaboration with the New Brunswick Health Coalition.

Join us to hear from experts and community members about the impact that high drug prices have on their lives and in their community, and to see the power we’re building together behind this demand.

Later Event: April 29
