Canada has always been against the blockade. The United States' blockade is what hurts the most, as everyone here agrees. Medicines that might cost US$5 arrive in Cuba after having gone around the world and not just 140 km. Thus, it costs US$35. The government pays a very high price, and Cubans get the product for free, or they pay for it in pesos, which is the national currency.
Therefore, we must condemn the United States' government meddling in Cuban affairs. That would help the Cuban people. Despite the difficulties, Cuban are managing to get by fairly well.
