Dr David Rowland sued Health Canada in 1997 and again in 2012 along with Nick Mancuso and needs your help by sending a letter to you MP regarding Bill C-17

                    I am a strong supporter of individual human beings’ unalienable rights of Informed Freedom of Choice.  The majority of the world’s population relies upon dietary food supplements, defined as “ includes any product intended to supplement the diet that contains one or more of the following ingredients:  a vitamin, a mineral, a herb or botanical, an amino acid, a dietary substance for use by human beings to supplement the diet by increasing total dietary intake, and/or a concentrate, metabolite, constituent, extract or combination of any of the aforementioned substances” for their primary health care for themselves and their loved ones.

                    Mr. Trueman Tuck, on behalf of Friends of Freedom International [See www.fofi.ca] and the Canadian Coalition for Health Freedom [See  www.cchf.ca], has amended the proposed version of Bill C-17 [Vanessa’s Law] [See Exhibits 1 & 2] to incorporate this definition into this Bill to amend the Food and Drugs Act.

                    In addition, Mr. Tuck has amended Bill C-17 to delete section 3 of the existing Food and Drugs Act.  You may not be aware of it, but this section was added to the Food and Drugs Act in 1934 [See Exhibit 3] and makes it a criminal offense to truthfully advertise the positive benefits of Dietary Food Supplements and other regulated products.  This existing provision is not constitutionally valid and after 80 years needs to be deleted.

                     Dr. James Lunney’s and Dr. Colin Carrie’s Private Members’ Bill C-420 in 2003 through 2005 had attempted to make these two improvements to the outdated Food and Drugs Act.  I need you to support Mr. Tuck’s proposed improvements to the Bill C-17 and allow Mr. Tuck to appear as a witness to speak on my behalf on why incorporating these improvements into Bill C-17, which will significantly improve the Federal Government’s regulatory ability to protect my good-health and well-being and that of those I love.

                    We were promised in the extensive Canadian Standing Committee on Health in 1998 reports and the Minister’s subsequent acceptance of the 53 recommendations [See Exhibit 4] that the outdated Food and Drugs Act would be amended to create an appropriate Federal Regulatory system for our ultra safe Dietary Food Supplements.  I am very upset that my Dietary Food Supplements are now being called Natural Health Products and regulated in the same fashion as deadly pharmaceuticals (Allopathic Drugs).

                    I fully support the need to better protect me and my loved ones from the Allopathic Drugs, but also need to ensure that the selection, pricing and availability of Dietary Food Supplements as defined above are protected from decades of ongoing prejudicial Health Canada Abuse.  For details please visit www.healthcanadaabuse.ca.  Mr. Tuck’s proposed amendments to Bill C-17 will modernize the 1884 Adulteration and Fraud Act [See Exhibit 5], the title of which was changed in 1920 to the Food and Drugs Act [See Exhibit 6].

One of the best ways to protect me and my loved ones from the dangerous and deadly allopathic drugs/medicines is to allow me to know the truth about the risks and benefits of allopathic drugs/medicine, as well as the risks and benefits of food based medicine (Dietary food supplements).

                     I have copied this letter to my MP and Members of the Canadian Senate and respectfully request that all of you put our individual human being’s rights of Informed Freedom ahead of all other considerations and incorporate Mr. Tuck’s recommended amendments to the over 100 year old existing Food and Drugs Act.

                     Please meet with Mr. Tuck as my representative and support his appearance before both the Parliamentary and Senate Committees reviewing Bill C-17.

                                   I do not want what happened with Bills C-51, C-52, C-6, C-36 and C-38 to occur with Bill C-17, which was the fast tracking of the bills without providing full and proper balanced witness appearances and incorporating much needed amendments that were clearly in the public interest.

                    There is nothing more important to me as a Canadian than fully protecting the unique Canadian emphasis on individual human beings’ constitutionally protected rights, freedoms and liberties.  We cannot allow the Canadian Rule of Law and Written and Unwritten Constitution [See Exhibits 7, 8 & 9] to be eroded and destroyed.  I do not want my Canada to be ruled by tyrants who have no respect or regard for human rights.

                    Please confirm receipt in writing of this communication and that you will meet with Mr. Trueman Tuck to discuss these matters and support his appearance as a witness on my behalf.

             Thank you.

            Yours Sincerely,

–          David W. Rowland
