We’re making progress
Last week more than 3,000 of you wrote to the Canadian Pharmacists Association (CPhA). You told the association to stop charging additional dispensing fees for prescriptions. Good news – those messages are starting to get results! Within a few days, we saw changes in New Brunswick, BC, Manitoba, and Nova Scotia. They brought in rules to limit fees. We’re also hearing that some pharmacies are waiving the extra costs. I’m really excited about our progress – now we need to make sure no Canadian, no matter where they live, is left paying more. We need your help to ensure every Canadian benefits. Tell the CPhA to instruct their members to waive the extra fees. Use our simple tool right now. https://canadianlabour.ca/ If you have already sent a letter, please forward this email to your contacts. Invite them to take part. Let’s make sure that unnecessary fees don’t stand in the way of our health. Brent Farrington, National Director 2841 promenade Riverside Drive |
