The Canadian government, afraid of the public reaction once people find out what they are trying to pull, is currently fast-tracking a Bill which threatens to strip you of your rights to access a wide range of natural health products. If it passes, and you buy/sell/share/collect/dry/eat/feed to your family any of the restricted stuff, you become a criminal subject to fines 1000X bigger than those currently in effect.

The government is putting out misleading information that this Bill
is OK, that it has none of the nasties that the opponents are claiming.
Let's take it as a sign that the pressure of opposition is having an effect,
and rather than backing down, let's keep the pressure steady.
(NaturalNews) A new law being pushed in Canada by Big Pharma seeks to outlaw up to 60 percent of natural health products currently sold in Canada, even while criminalizing parents who give herbs or supplements to their children. The law, known as C-51, was introduced by the Canadian Minister of Health on April 8th, 2008, and it proposes sweeping changes to Canada's Food and Drugs Act that could have devastating consequences on the health products industry.
Among the changes proposed by the bill are radical alterations to key terminology, including replacing the word "drug" with "therapeutic product" throughout the Act, thereby giving the Canadian government broad-reaching powers to regulate the sale of all herbs, vitamins, supplements and other items. With this single language change, anything that is "therapeutic" automatically falls under the Food and Drug Act. This would include bottled water, blueberries, dandelion greens and essentially all plant-derived substances.
The Act also changes the definition of the word "sell" to include anyone who gives such therapeutic products to someone else. So a mother giving an herb to her child, under the proposed new language, could be arrested for engaging in the sale of unregulated, unapproved "therapeutic substances."

New enforcement powers allow Canadian government to seize your home or business
At the same time that C-51 is outlawing herbs, supplements and vitamins, it would grant alarming new "enforcement" powers to the (thugs) enforcement agents who claim to be "protecting" the public from dangerous unapproved "therapeutic agents" like, say, dandelion greens. As explained on the www.Educate-Yourself.org website ((http://educate-yourself.org/cn/canadian...), the C-51 law would allow the Canadian government's thugs enforcement agents to:
* Raid your home or business without a warrant
* Seize your bank accounts
* Levy fines up to $5 million and a jail terms up to 2 years for merely selling an herb
* Confiscate your property, then charge you storage fees for the expense involved in storing all the products they stole from you
C-51 would even criminalize the simple drying of herbs in your kitchen to be used in an herbal product, by the way. That would now be categorized as a "controlled activity," and anyone caught engaging in such "controlled activities" would be arrested, fined and potentially jailed. Other "controlled activities" include labeling bottles, harvesting plants on a farm, collecting herbs from your back yard, or even testing herbal products on yourself! (Yes, virtually every activity involving herbs or supplements would be criminalized...)
There's more, too. C-51 is the Canadian government's "final solution" for the health products industry. It's a desperate effort to destroy this industry that's threatening the profits and viability of conventional medicine. Natural medicine works so well -- and is becoming so widely used -- that both the Canadian and American governments have decided to "nuke" the industries by passing new laws that effectively criminalize anyone selling such products. They simply cannot tolerate allowing consumers to have continued access to natural products. To do so will ultimately spell the destruction of Big Pharma and the outdated, corrupt and criminally-operated pharmaceutical industry that these criminally-operated governments are trying to protect.

Prime Minister Stephen Harper,
We the undersigned wish to express our opposition to Bill C-51 and ask that you abandon this unacceptable law immediately.
We call on you, as head of our democratically elected minority government to respect our rights and freedoms to use natural health products to maintain and protect our health.
While we accept the role of the pharmaceutical industry in providing the substances they do, we reject any preferential treatment of this industry, or any anticompetitive or restrictive of the natural health products industry.
We reject the merging together of "drugs" and natural health products into a new "therapeutic product" category subject to the same degree of regulatory oversight. This is completely inappropriate, and is not in our best interest.
We reject the proposed increasing of the size of government through its expansion into regulating all herbs, vitamins, supplements, bottled water, blueberries, dandelion greens. Your stated commitment is to smaller government and expanded freedom. Please constrain yourself to this commitment.
We specifically reject the backdoor provisions of this bill which would allow future changes to Canadian law to circumvent a vote in parliament. We don't accept that US law, CODEX Alimentarius, UN documents, or other foreign laws could be injected into Canadian law, like a virus, by regulatory reference.
We are prepared to accept this as a momentary lapse in judgement which can easily be corrected by abandoning this bill and issuing an apology to the Canadian people (but hey, we'll settle for the Bill-Kill).
We are proud, free, responsible people who have taken care of our health through our own personal choices, partly by using natural products with a long history of effectiveness and insist that your government protect and enhance these rights and freedoms.

Dear Prime Minister Stephen Harper
I believe that nature cures are much more effective than pharmaceutical drugs and should therefore be promoted instead of being demoted by bill C-51
# 22,471:
As a Canadian Citizen and under The Constitional Act of 1982 and under the Legal Rights #7 and #8 as well as our basic Guarantee of Rights and Freedoms,where as the passing of Bill C 51 will contradict and remove those rights and freedoms set out by our constitution, I remain opposed to such a Bill passing Parliment and urge that common sense pervail with our elected MInisters to up old their oath to our Consitution and not vote for the pasing of Bill C 51. The prescription of such a Bill will only erode the sovergein and free and democratic soiety of our great country Canada. I oppose Bill C 51.
OUur Country Canada is Ruled by our elected officials to represent the will of the people ,our Country and International law does not, nor will ever govern our Sovereign Nation of Canada. I oppose the ruling of international bodies govern our Country

In all respect to our government officials, I am disgusted with your attempt to strip me and my children or our rights as human beings. I use the term human being rather then citizen because as citizens of this country, it is a policaly correct term to regard the people as no more then a resource to exploit. Your new law is no different then the gun laws that were rammed down our throats. Your so scared of dissent in this country that your own fears are going to bring about the civil war that you know will eventually occur going down the path you have chosen. I read history and your actions are no different. disarm the people, then systematically remove their funadamental rights to reach an end that regards all citizens as criminals and and a system of slavery. We already have slavery in this country as many people are one check away from a welfare office. I am no fool to the enviromental catastrophe that is upon us and the disinformation presented to us by the many forms of government and business. I also know that the perps of these acts could be interpreted as acts of treason and prosecuted as such. natural medicines have been around since before the dawn of man and will be here long after we are gone. It was the indians of old that treated the first explorers for scurvy and our so called modern pharmaceutical drugs are derived from. Pharmaceutical companies like oil companies must not be allowed to dictate policy in this country. Too many times already traditional treatment has been pushed aside in favor of the pharmaceutical. It is a freedom of choice that is being denied by your bill and it is our freedom of choice to tell you to take your bill shove where the sun don't sun and set fire to it but remember to take that antibiotic pill so it don't infect!
disgusted that our rights are being manipulated by a police state south of the border. its a bit obvious where the influence of such is comming from
# 22,464:
I am not a medical expert by any means, but I do not think we as sovereigns of our land and of our country should allow this encroachment to our freedom. The war on drugs has cost billions and has devastated millions of lives. Proposing this new war on drugs is ridiculous and Divisive.
How can one man claim that a human genetic process to make a heart cell is his property with intellectual property rights and another not be allowed to plant a seed, That he personally believes to have medicinal properties. We do not want to pay to be poisoned anymore.

There may not be surmounting scientific evidence that natural products cures all but there is surmounting evidence of its effectiveness. If it works for thousands of people for millions of years, then why prohibit or regulate restrictions on something that only does good? Well not good for pharmaceutical companies but I mean the greater good for all. If we follow this logic, why not prohibit or control religion and mother nature? Humans have evolved over thousands and thousands of years with the use of natural products --> NOT pharma products. Obviously, our ancestors have made good use of mother nature to cure and heal without side effects that most pharma drugs cause. Anyways, although they are not banning the usage of natural products, the restrictions to regulate something that sometimes is not measurable in 'scientific terms' will bring the natural products and its effects down and detrimentally affect users and providers around the world.

I no longer take prescription drugs unless it is ABSOLUTELY NECESSARY. I will always choose natural over pharmacutical. With the skyrocketing health care costs in this country, why would you take away the right for people to attend to their health as they see fit? Don't even try to tell me this has nothing to do with the big drug companies - look at how they operate in the US. My God! Is the Canadian government trying to emulate that screwed up country? God save us all from stupid, ill-thought out ideas like this one.
Like hell!

I am shocked whenever I hear of any situation where a government decides to remove peoples rights,especially when it is as basic as a persons right to use and enjoy nature and its produce.It is in my opinion essential for all creatures to have freedom of choice especially in regards to food and health.It is shocking to hear that any governing body believes it has a right to seriously concider such actions.If I have power one day,I will remove all governing bodys who attempt to dictate and control people in this way.Gob smacked,UK.
It is outragious!Do they honestly think that their job is to dictate to the people (who voted them into power),and remove their rights without even giving those citzens a choice/vote.The government is supposed to enpower the needs of the people,not of themselves and no doubt there selfish money orientated intentions.May the greater forces in the universe take control of these situations and put these foolish people back in their rightful place.

I've studied the bill myself, you (the Government) cannot and will never be able to take away my right and my family rights to heal ourselves. I've never be involved in politics or cared to be, until now.

I find it abhorrable that the government feels they have the right to pass bills such as these that directly impact our health and lives as a public and as individuals. I think a law should be passed obligating it be voted on within each region/community that would be affected by it.

Sommes-nous libre de choisir? Notre pays est-il encore dans la liberté de l'offre? Les décès des personnes prenant des médicaments dit conforme à la légalité, sont-ils plus sécuritaires?

# 22,436:
I am not in agreement with this at all. We deserve to have a say about what comes into our country.
# 22,435:
I don't feel confortable at all!! W should get a vote on date as the same when it was for sovereinty of Quebec...it is a way to block all the alternative medecine and also their tools for working, supplements. And something I don't understand is that we have already a processus who verify all the natural products sold in Quebec right now, so this protect the public! what do the government want more??? to encourage only the doctors and the pharmaceutical??? these doctors does not no nothing about I to prescribe natural products! Sorry I talk about other things beside of the law but something is very awful, is where the democracy? we are not in Cuba but in Canada and the population should have the right to know exactly what is happening and also the right to say something about it!!

We are Canadians! Bill C-51 is just another step towards making Canada a police state like the USA; we are better than that! No government should be allowed to tell us we can't use natural health products. Do not let greedy and evil pharmacutical companies control our government. Save our country!

BILL C51 IS WHAT I CALL FASCIST LEGISLATION. ANY POLITICAL PARTY IN CANADA OF PARTY MEMBER THAT VOTES FOR BILL C51 AT ALL IS NOT A PATRIOT OF CANADA. IF YOU OR YOUR PARTY VOTE/S FOR THIS BILL IN ANY FORM (AMENDED OR NOT) THEN YOU ARE NOT A PERSON WHO LOVES THE CANADIAN PEOPLE. YOU ARE THEN A TREASONIST TO YOUR PEOPLE; BUT THEN, MR. HARPER, YOU ARE WELL AWARE OF THIS. IF YOUR PARTY OR ANY INDIVIDUAL IN YOUR PARTY VOTES FOR THIS THEN YOU WILL NEVER RECIEVE MY VOTE, EVER AGAIN. NO POLITICIAN THAT VOTES FOR BILL C51 IN ANY FORM WILL EVER RECIEVE MY VOTE AGAIN. YOUR HANDLERS KNOW THAT THEY ONLY HAVE A SHORT TIME TO HAVE AS MANY LAWS PASSED AS POSSIBLE TO MORE CLOSELY CONTROL THE PEOPLE AS TRUTH IS GROWING EXPONENTIALLY. REMEMBER THE ROCKEFELERS HAVE SWITCHED SIDES SO GOY WILL EVENTUALLY WIN. WHY DO YOU THINK HILLARY DID NOT HAVE A CHANCE ? HER BACKING DISSAPPEARED AND SO WILL YOURS IF YOU VOTE IN THESE TYPES OF LAWS SUCH AS BILL C51 IN ANY FORM. THE DAYS OF EVIL ARE NUMBERED AND SO IS YOUR POWER IF YOU DO NOT CHANGE TO THE LIGHTED SIDE. THERE ARE MANY AGENTS WHO ARE SWITCHING SIDES AS WELL. THEY KNOW THAT YOU WILL EVENTUALLY STAB THEM IN THE BACK AS MANY OTHERS SUCH AS HILLARY AND HER GROUP OF EVIL HIRELINGS HAVE DONE. THE WORD IS OUT. YOU MAY CONTROL FOR A SHORT TIME BUT EVENTUALLY YOU WILL BE SACRIFICED AS ANY EVIL ONE WHO DOES NOT CONTINUE TO KOWTOW TO "THEIR" BIDDING. YOU MAY HAVE TO EVEN SACRIFICE YOUR FAMILIES LIVES TO ACHIEVE THE GOALS OF YOUR HANDLERS. THEIR CONTROL IS DIMINISHING EVERY DAY AND WHEN THE COLLAPSE HAPPENS YOU AND YOUR FAMILY WILL PAY THE ULTIMATE PENALTY FOR YOUR EVIL DOINGS AGAINST THE CANADIAN PEOPLE IF YOU VOTE FOR BILL C51 AND ANY OTHER BILL THAT TAKES SOVERIGNTY AWAY FROM ATON'S PEOPLE.

I am oppossed to bill C-51, because you are taking out my rights to use natural medecines, and you are given business to the big Pharma, that will dramacally overprice the medicines, and that is how you like protect the Canadians' health?

This is nothing short of absolute fascism. The government can't tell us what is good for our health and what isn't.

I got sick taking pills doctor prescription. We must be free to use natural supplement as an alternative.
Foreign country law must not be accepted as our own laws without case study and vote.
# 22,423:
The proposed Bill C-51 is a fascist measure violating the individual rights of Canadians--it must be stopped immediately.

I have been taking natural supplements, herbs, and vitamins for several years and am healthier now, at 55 years of age, than ever before. I do not want government sticking their noses into the natural foods and vitamins industries and trying to regulate any part of them. Government keeps telling all of us that soy is good for us and now puts it in 65% of the processed foods we eat. Well, do some research on the negative effects of unfermented soy on the thyroid. I found out before it was too late - the eight pounds I suddenly gained dropped right off when I stopped taking soy protein! We should be able to decide what supplements we want to take without government interference!
Each country should have their own laws, which should be voted on by the people the laws affect. We have a right to have our voices heard.

I strongly disagree with this bill. The reason this bill is even being considered is because of greed within the pharmaceutical companies and interested parties. If you care about the health of Canadians you will stop this bill immediately
We are liked respected around the world - where the united states is not. Lets keep it that way...lets stop them from taking our oil as well...

It is not surprising that Big Pharma wants to regulate the Natural Products Industry. Consumers are spending millions of dollars on alternative medicine including health products. This is big business that Pharmo is not benefiting from.
As an educated consumer I want access to those products associated with very intentional choices around alternative health care.

It shouldn't happen.

If this bill goes through you have had my last vote!!!

I am disappointed that the very natural products that have been around for thousands of years are now considered "bad" for you and that the gov. can decide what we can consume for our health. Will our groceries be monitored next?
Canadians have the right to know what is going on and to have a voice for their health. How can the gov't(who is supposed to be representing the people) make decisions without our consent?
