What happened was that it was approved by the federal government, by Health Canada, and then when it went to the provinces, it was decided by CADTH that it wouldn't be approved because it was too costly and wasn't effective.
All the research said the drug worked. That was why Health Canada approved it. Why do we have two levels of government where one is undermining what the other said? If it's effective and Health Canada has approved it, how come a province can decide that no, it's not effective? Clearly all the research supports that it is.
