THE FIRST CONSUMER SHOW WHERE WE GOT A GOOD TALKING TO.

NHPPA’s Information Officer Carolyn Steele, President Shawn Buckley and Campaign Director/Executive Coordinator Julia Rickert at the NHPPA booth

Shawn and the Ontario members of NHPPA’s team were on hand to chat at this November’s Whole Life Expo in Toronto, Ontario.

This was a year of ‘firsts’ for us in many ways and we had a truly inspiring weekend meeting so many of you. It was the first consumer health show where the public was largely already savvy to the issues and stopped by to learn the greater complexities of our initiatives.

Helke Ferrie includes the Charter of Health Freedom as she surveys the citizens’ revolt against corporate control of our healthcare and food supply Vitality Magazine

In a wide-ranging and knowlegable survey of the way the worldwide Occupy movement is resonating within individuals Helke Ferrie’s article in January’s Vitality magazine is more than just a wake-up call. It is a timely reminder that only we can re-occupy our bodies, a wake  up-call to the autonomies we have lost and continue to lose, and a call to action.

She observes; “This movement is not another plan by somebody to save the world, but an invitation to everybody to come to grips with reality.” As she analyses current trends regarding issues such as GMOs, asbestos, vaccination and the ever increasing power of the medical cartel, she adds; “Importantly, once something has been understood, it is not possible to go back to the time of ignorance and forget what is known. The process of change is unstoppable.”

Finally, in a review of changing attitudes and the noticeably increasing groundswell of public anger and awareness she cites the Charter of Health Freedom as both public opinion barometer and tool for change.

“More and more people are taking charge of their health, asking questions, and refusing to cooperate blindly. The support for the Charter of Health Freedom written by lawyer Shawn Buckley, of the Natural Health Products Protection Association, is a good measure for this shift in public opinion.”

Shawn spoke with Lisa Petty, 610CKTB’s Lisa Live host. St. Catharines, ON.

Shawn was in the guest chair for a must-listen-to radio interview that changes the way you feel about how Natural Health Products (NHPs) are regulated in Canada.

Shawn discussed how consumers and practitioners alike will be affected due to the restriction of everyday products that Canadians have been using for decades. Understand how dangerous it is to have, in effect, Health Canada make medical decisions they are not qualified to make. Shawn shared real life health consequences as Health Canada decides to enforce these flawed regulations. Shawn describes the Charter of Health Freedom, a law drafted on our constitutional rights and our Charter of Rights and Freedoms that would serve as the new guiding principle that reforms how NHPs are regulated in Canada.

Lisa and Shawn looked at the contrast between the U.S and Canadian laws surrounding NHPs which ties into the landscape and future of NHPs in Canada.

HEALTH CANADA HAS NO INTENTION OF ALLOWING THE NATURAL HEALTH PRODUCTS INDUSTRY TO THRIVE.

It should be no surprise to anyone paying attention that the NHP Regulations as they are currently written, classified, and enforced are dismantling the natural health product industry.

It’s become clear through the NHPD’s actions that the barriers to obtain or even keep ‘approved’ product licenses will change over time. 

Anyone who thinks the NHP Regulations can be solved by making concessions through revisions, recommendations or review, is missing what’s happening.

Over the summer, the Natural Health Products Protection Association (NHPPA) moved focus to their legal challenge which was introduced to the public and industry in October 2009.

Part of the NHPPA’s 3-Part Plan to create a balanced regulatory environment for natural health products is a law suit to challenge the current NHP Regulations.

Andy Oudman and Pam Killeen interview Shawn Buckley London, ON News Talk Radio.

Shawn Buckley from the Natural Health Products Protection Association talks about the over-regulation of Natural Health Products in Canada. Shawn asks “Does it make you feel safe that the government can seize your property without a warrant and that we are being told this is for our safety?”

Shawn spoke with Lisa Petty, 820CHAM’s Lisa Live host. Hamilton, ON.

On Saturday, July 9th 2011 Shawn explains to Lisa court room evidence Health Canada ignores: “I can’t use those in court, [letters to a manufacturer from a customer] that is pure hearsay evidence, not admissible at all. But, I can call the people who wrote the letters, put them on the stand, they can swear to tell the truth and that is the highest level of evidence in court, personal testimony. Which is interesting because Health Canada completely ignores it and courts privilege it. It kind of raises the question, who is the best source of information as to whether or not a treatment works for you? It’s you, you’re the one that knows.”
