Manage episode 444759747 series 2434984
Legislation to establish a framework for universal pharmacare in Canada is now law. The program will provide patients with diabetes and birth control medication. Next: getting the provinces to sign on.
Also: Quebec is considering a plan to assign family doctors based on who needs the most care. People who are relatively healthy wouldn’t have their own family doctor. But there are still a lot of unknowns. CBC News speaks to doctors who say it wouldn’t be good for patients or physicians.
And: The highways are jammed and gas is running short in Florida as evacuees head home to see if their houses still stand after Hurricane Milton.
Plus…a check-in on the national school food program, the Nobel Peace Prize goes to those opposing nuclear weapons, and more.
