Absolutely, it's hard not to be discouraged sometimes as an advocate, but certainly Health Canada has done minimal changes to this point, so even things like a black box warning and our request to put photos of failed breast implants on their website.... The website itself isn't as informative as it should be.
I want to draw attention to the fact that even though there have been some actions taken, we wrote them a letter asking what substantive changes have been made, and the really important issues are ignored. The issues with breast implants described in the “inconvenient truth” article, like migrated silicone and the chemicals in breast implants, they don't want to take on. These changes that are happening, and not to a good degree, to me are not really making women any safer than they were back decades ago, so they need to address these issues.
