Hello Ian,

Thank you for your email. As you know, we have been in the process of challenging Health Canada on several fronts. We opposed Bill C-36 because of its unconstitutional removal of the rule of law and we are now working flat out to produce a legal case against the NHP Regulations, our aim is to have them suspended before the reintroduction of Bill C-51 after the election.

As we take Health Canada to court we sincerely hope that their unsupervised powers to control and ban items in areas other than the natural health community will naturally follow, however we have no specific expertise in the area of electronic cigarettes. It does look as though the medical devices industry is one of the next in their sights and we hear that this is the justification they are using to restrict access to the products you need.

We are challenging the NHP Regulations in court right now, since this is our area of knowledge and the community which supports us financially. Many similar principles will be tested however and we hope that our challenge will shine a light on the behaviour of Health Canada in all other areas of operation.

We are running a national fundraising drive to collect the dollars we need not only for our daily operations but to file a lawsuit against Health Canada. In order do to this we need to finance an expert legal team big enough, and for long enough, to take the case to the supreme court. Shawn Buckley has been interviewing firms and lawyers who he feels can do the job, and guided by him, we are preparing our team of experts. The Department of Justice has unlimited funds and resources. We only have our supporters.



We at the NHPPA watch, research and disseminate as much information as we can. If you would like regular updates on how our campaigns are running, and how you can help, do please subscribe to our 308 Freedom Network. This network connects concerned citizens in every political riding in the country so that action can be targeted quickly and effectively.

Great news that these guys are being made aware of our plight, and we do share something in common, which is the "Health" department opposing measures designed specifically to improve people's health significantly. I'm new to vaping but have been a natural health proponent for several decades, so it's not surprising at all to me that we're up against these corrupt and ignorant .......s on this issue as well. Once again, it comes down to their supporting toxic and harmful methods over benign ones providing significant alternative benefits.

For instance they prefer people take toxic and sometimes even dangerous prescription drugs over certain natural remedies that have not only been shown to be much more beneficial, they treat the root causes of the condition rather than just suppress the symptoms. It is not the health of Canadians they are concerned about, and in fact are in opposition to it, and the health they are really concerned about is that of the companies who make billions of dollars perpetuating disease states upon our unsuspecting populace.

So the fact that they would stand alongside the tobacco companies and ban electronic cigarettes and still call themselves Health Canada is shameful beyond words.

Anything we can do to oppose this is worth doing.

Shawn Buckley has fought and beaten Health Canada and here are three of his biggest cases that he has won.

* obtaining the acquittal of TrueHope Nutritional Support following a protracted Health Canada prosecution
* obtaining the acquittal of the Strauss Herb Company from 73 charges brought by Health Canada;
* having charges against the Nutraceutical Company (Biomedica) withdrawn after Constitutional Challenges to the new Drug Regulations and the seizure power under the Food and Drugs Act were filed.

I trust Shawn will be making lots of noise and beat Health Canada on Bill C-36. C-36 goes against all our constitutional rights. The end of Bill C-36 will be good news for our suppliers not having to worry about HC agents peering threw their living room windows and breaking trespassing laws, shutting down hardware suppliers for no good reason, and using non existent laws to make vaping a thing of the past. I am working to get more information as it happens for all of us to see.
