You're misconstruing what happened, but more importantly still writing as if all you want is a fight. All I wanted was to maybe provoke some discussion from people who know something more than I do about what's going on. Follow-up questions for anyone inclined to participate in this discussion in future (not me) might include asking why this "National Drug Agency" also doesn't exist yet, despite having apparently been promised by the Liberals back in 2019. What happened to it? Did policy change? Are they going to come out and say "of course we're building a pharmacare plan to cover essential drugs, it's what we've promised all along"? If they do, in what ways will it be politically controversial among Liberals or NDP supporters? How long might it realistically be expected to take to establish such and agency and have it produce anything useful, and then how much longer for an actual pharmacare plan? Has any progress been made? Where would I go to read about it in depth?

Anyway, I guess Lemmy is maybe not the place for that sort of thing.
