About the Episode

There’s a pediatric health crisis in Alberta and with it a major shortage of children’s tylenol (acetaminophen) and childrens ibuprofen.

On Monday Danielle Smith announced that she had arranged for the purchase of 5 Million bottle of children’s acetaminophen and ibuprofen. Only problem is, the company that she bought it from doesn’t make it yet, they aren’t legally allowed to seek drugs Canada yet, and many estimates put the drugs arriving in the spring of 2023.

Plus the press conference was a disaster.

So with the help of Sarah Biggs, we break down all of that, the recent resignation of two deputy CMOH’s and we have a special visit from our newest pawlitical analyst!
