Ontario and Manitoba both train Pharmacists to provide a host of primary care services to folks in need. The goal is to allow people to get the care they need, when and where they need it – especially right now when there is a shortage of primary care providers (like family doctors, etc.). The difference is that Ontario actually allows its Pharmacists to use all their training to help people, while Manitoba severely restricts Pharmacists in Manitoba. Why is Manitoba lagging behind when people need care?

If you live in any of these three small Atlantic provinces, you can access convenient, high-quality primary care from your local Pharmacist. It’s just one measure a provincial government can take to help expand and enhance access to primary care at a time when thousands go without it.
Manitoba? Not so much.

If you’re in rural Saskatchewan and have certain illnesses, you can head down to your local Pharmacist and get assessed. If you’re in rural Manitoba, you may need to wait for the doctor’s office to be open, or maybe drive to Winnipeg to find a walk-in or ER.
If Manitoba’s provincial government expanded the scope of practice for Pharmacists the way Saskatchewan and other provinces have, you’d get high-quality care quicker and more conveniently. What is Manitoba waiting for?

Why is it that Saskatchewan provides better access to primary care than Manitoba? Pharmacists in Saskatchewan, like Manitoba, are trained to provide many important primary care services to patients in need. The difference? The Saskatchewan provincial government actually allows Pharmacists there to provide care. The Manitoba provincial government is still lagging behind for some unknown reason. The result? You aren’t getting the primary care you need when you need it.
Just one example: If you have a sore throat in SK, you don’t need to wait to get into to see your doctor (if you have one) or sit in a walk-in for hours. You can just see your Pharmacist down the street and they can assess you for strep and prescribe antibiotics if appropriate.

Axe the Fax for Pharmacists! Allowing therapeutic substitution (within class) for Pharmacists (like other provinces do) would free up time for Pharmacists and Physicians to spend on patient care instead of paperwork.
