A suitable pharmacare program would be a publicly funded and administered system that provides coverage for prescription drugs to all Canadians.

If the legislation is passed but not fully implemented by the end of 2025, the market will still resolve as YES.

Hi! What happens if Bill C-64 passes, which will provide coverage for some prescription drugs to all Canadians -- but not ALL prescription drugs? https://www.canada.ca/en/health-canada/news/2024/02/government-of-canada-introduces-legislation-for-first-phase-of-national-universal-pharmacar.html

@SE I'm inclined to count it.

I created my own market on the legislation passing in 2023:

@makeworld Nice! How do you think our resolution criteria compare other than the date difference?

@kenakofer your market requires certain features of the pharmacare legislation, like public funding. My only requirement is that the NDP vote for it (and it passes).
