It’s because of how your province negotiated the contract for the drugs. I guarantee that there’s language in there that has penalties if there’s supply problems.
Countries that don’t negotiate drug prices/contracts are the ones that are suffering with shortages.
Insert Morpheus meme about people’s worst fears about socialism being realized under capitalism.
I had a 2 week period without a job and swapped insurance because of the new job offering it through a different service
Same Dr, same pharmacy, same pharmacist, yet the whole thing was treated like I was new at the pharmacy because of the insurance change
I personally think they were looking for any reason to drop people because they simply didn’t have enough to supply all of us rather than just admit that
Dunno why so many other pharmacies were outright rude to me when I called but that’s what a friend also experienced so my guess is stress over the situation or shitty callers who get angry
One of my kids just started on 2 different medications in Canada and we had no problem. Wouldn’t have even thought there were shortages elsewhere

Thanks for the info. Sorry that’s happening where you live
I find this strange as well. While the producer of my meds has changed several times, I’ve never had to wait or go without at any point in time.
