Canada’s Access to Medicines Regime
Almost five years ago, Parliament responded to the urgent need for medicines in many developing countries by creating “Canada’s Access to Medicines Regime” (CAMR), with the goal of getting affordable medicines to people in the developing world. Unfortunately, that laudable initiative was, and is, seriously flawed.
But now there is a chance to fix it! Join the Canadian HIV/AIDS Legal Network in applying pressure on Canadian parliamentarians. The Canadian government has the ability to save lives and get essential medicines to ailing patients in developing countries. Right now, we could help thousands of people in developing countries survive — especially children.
