A vial of insulin costs far, far, far, far more in the U.S. than it does in Canada, as do most other drugs.

As a proud Canadian-owned and operated company, we want to do our part to support Canadians. As a family we have decided to absorb all immediate increases in our costs due to the Trump-tariffs for the rest of the year to maintain our prices. We will continue to reinforce our Canadian-first policies.

The Trump official currently dismantling USAID was caught in a secret meeting with a group of pro-Russian separatists in the Balkans.

Those he met with are under American sanctions for trying to restart the Bosnian war in the name of Christian nationalism. 1/

In December 2022, Pierre Poilievre wrote in a National Post op-ed, “People struggling with addiction belong in treatment, not prison.”

Last week, he unashamedly called for many of those same people to be imprisoned for life.
