In order to give Canadians access to appropriate information, we have to make sure that it is based on science and not on industry-sponsored research. Information offered to Canadians will still need to go through the Department of Health, which will then be able to publish it and send key messages to the Canadian population.
We really want to ensure that industry has no influence and that the information provided to Canadians is accurate and science based.
