it gets even better when you consider that pharmacists are allowed to refuse to fill prescriptions here for "moral reasons", or in fact any other reason. C2 scripts are an absolute joy to fill here (/s) because you're constantly dealing with some tinpot dictator at the pharmacy window who is upset you're filling it on the earliest day you're allowed as opposed to waiting for the last day and finding out it's out-of-stock (because of the constant shortages). the argument is that pharmacists are a "last line of defense" against the fractured system or mistakes from doctors (or clerical errors etc) but their authority is absolutely not limited to correcting errors or double-checking with the doctor's office. In practice the pharmacists here are incredibly full of themselves, they'll refuse to dispense birth control, etc, and there is no duty for the pharmacy to ensure someone else will service you, they can just say "no" and that's it.
