Port Moody's Linda Zumm was speaking at an appearance by federal NDP leader Jagmeet Singh.
Retired from her banking career, Zumm fills her days with yoga, walks with her husband from their Port Moody home, visits with her former colleagues from the international payments department at the Bank of Montreal and travel.Zumm was diagnosed with Type 1 diabetes when she was 26.
He was there to tout the importance of a national Pharmacare plan put together in collaboration with the federal Liberal party but could be in peril depending on the results of the next federal election, scheduled to occur by Oct. 20, 2025. Singh said recent statements by the leader of the federal Progressive Conservative party, Pierre Poilievre, indicate the new benefit may never come to pass if his party forms the next government.Zumm said while private insurance has helped ease the financial burden of managing her disease, she empathizes with younger people who don’t enjoy such a comfort because they don’t have access to private insurance or can’t afford it because of precarious employment.
