Thank You to NHP Manufacturers!

Nov

2019

Manufacturers catalyze NHPPA’s work—but only a few. Kudos go out to those who have allowed us to take action. Their partnerships are without equal. They were the backbone that drove the success of our “Do You Want My Vote?” MP postcard campaign. The campaign saw over 320,000 postcards shipped across the country. It was possible for NHPPA to reach retailers through their channels. They recognize what they, and all Canadians, have to lose if the Self-Care Framework is fully implemented. Sincere thanks for the concept and consistent distribution that engaged retailers, practitioners and the public, nation-wide.

Product shipments to retailers included NHPPA campaign materials. Blank petitions pages, posters, handouts, articles written by Shawn Buckley, “Help Us Fight Back” brochures, and of course, volumes of MP postcards!

Although this campaign has ended, take a look at the success:

NHPPA’s “Do You Want My Vote?” MP postcard campaign launched April 2019. The momentum continues into the fall. With the support of key natural health product (NHP) manufacturers, over 320,000 were shipped across the country. Check out the photo gallery below! Recognize any environments? More postcards are printed and at the ready to ship to any objector of Health Canada’s policies. If you are a member of the public, find one at a health food store or clinic near you! Educate your MP in an indisputably blatant manner. Sustain the pressure as MPs shift their focus to winning constituents’ votes.

Our distribution partners have confirmed that 320,000 pieces were shipped out in the last 6 months. Hundreds at a time. Response letters have confirmed MPs are reading the postcards. They are following the QR code for more education on the Self-Care Framework, the risks to NHPs and the detrimental effects on Canadians’ lives. An election year makes it all the more reason to maintain, and heighten, your advocacy.

We have been pleased to receive dozens of images of “Do You Want My Vote?” postcard displays. Many of which feature our “Help Us Fight Back” brochure. Photos were submitted by retailers and clinics who know the consequences of nonaction. If you showcase these postcards, send us a photo of your display! We would love to represent your cooperation.

To add another layer to the pressure, NHPPA is launching an MP letter writing campaign! One campaign at time to avoid activist burnout. Supporters nailed the postcard campaign, now it’s time for pen to paper. Campaigns launch when the timing is right. For right now, if you haven’t sent your MP a “Do You Want My Vote?” postcard – what’s stopping you?
