A silent health crisis is looming as more and more people struggle to pay for their prescription drugs. 
Even before the pandemic, the statistics were staggering. About 7.5 million citizens — one in five Canadians — either did not have prescription drug insurance or had inadequate insurance to cover their medication needs. One in four Canadian households was having difficulty finding money to buy their medicines. One million Canadians cut spending on food and heat to afford them.
