I though pharmacare was one of those things that paid for itself with the single point of negotiation and reduced need for emergency care? I don't really remember the numbers...

Well, emergency care is also a provincial responsibility, and a single point of negotiation is moot from a federal budget perspective if the alternative is to pay nothing and let people fend for themselves. To society I'm sure it's the better, cheaper option, though.

You don't see those results immediately, so it's easy to campaign against at first.
