On a new episode the Council of Canadians' Nikolas Barry-Shaw joins host Andre Goulet to discuss the Fight for Pharmacare Alliance, a national coalition coming together to raise political pressure and convince the feds that universal pharmacare needs to happen in a conversation unpacking the patient voices and patient advocacy groups represented in the alliance, how Big Pharma lobbying has increased since the Liberal/NDP confidence and supply agreement, what kind of timeline for implementation the alliance is calling for and more.

Plus: introducing 'About Canada: Dental Care', a new book providing a rare look behind the curtain of the dental corporation industry that describes the lack of access to dental care in relation to a broader picture of inequity, colonialism, ableism, and racism from Fernwood Publishing.
