Subject: Concerns Regarding Natural Health Products Regulations

 

Dear Rob Morrison,

 

I am writing to you as a constituent to express my concern about recent regulatory changes affecting natural health products in Canada. As someone who relies on natural health products for my well-being, I am worried about the potential negative impacts of these changes on access and affordability.

 

Specifically, I am concerned about the proposed fee increases for manufacturers and importers, as well as the new definition of “therapeutic products” that may encompass natural health products. These changes could lead to fewer products being available, higher prices, and a reduction in the choices available to consumers.

 

Natural health products play a vital role in supporting the health and well-being of many Canadians. They offer a natural approach to health management and are often a more affordable option for those who may not be able to afford prescription medications. I believe it is crucial to ensure that Canadians continue to have access to a variety of safe and effective natural health products. I worry that these regulations underestimate the importance of personal choice in preventive health care, and the impact this could have on individuals who use NHPs to manage chronic conditions or maintain general wellness.

I urge your office to consider the potential consequences of these changes and advocate for a more balanced, evidence-informed framework that protects consumer safety without unnecessarily limiting access or innovation. I would appreciate it if you would review the proposed changes, consult with stakeholders, and consider the impact on consumers and I hope you will work closely with new Minister of Health Marjorie Michel to ensure that the voices of Canadians who rely on Natural Health Products are heard and respected in shaping future regulations.

 

Thank you for your time and attention to this important matter. I look forward to hearing from you soon.

 

Sincerely,

[Your Name]
