Health care most important in this election

What matters the most to me and my family this election is health care. My parents are getting older, and I am really concerned about how I am going to be able to care for them.

What matters the most to me and my family this election is health care.

My parents are getting older, and I am really concerned about how I am going to be able to care for them.

The cost of their prescriptions alone is out of control, and it’s not getting any better.

I was really disappointed to see that when Justin Trudeau rolled out his plan for health care, there was no mention of pharma care.

With Harper in office, it has been hard enough to pay for medications for my mom, and if my kids get sick it just makes things worse.

I don’t think Justin Trudeau gets it.

I’ve not seen anything from him that will actually help my family keep our medical bills under control. We need someone who will reverse the damage Stephen Harper has done to health care over the last 10 years.

So far I’ve only seen that from the NDP.
