Today I went to the health food store to purchase colloidial minerals and they said the government had anned them. They are the only thing that has helped my arthritis and given me my mobility back. Now what am I going to do? My doctor has nothing to offer. seems like this bill has already passed.

For the coincidence-theorists out there... WAKE UP!!!

However, the bill could be amended to include NHP's without parliamentary approval. That may never happen. There will undoubtedly be another act to amend the Food and Drug Act with similar legislation. The problem I have with C-51, C-52 and C6 is not that they are tightening the regulations for products to protect Canadians from potential harm. Obviously, we need to have effective regulations. The problem I have with Bill C-6 is the way in which the the regulations have been changed. Inspectors are given unprecedented power and can enter premises, seize and hold property at the owners expense with no legal recourse.

Schedule 1 of the Bill explicitly excludes them, and specifically for NHPs, paragraph 4.(3) states that "[f]or greater certainty, this Act does not apply to natural health products as defined in subsection 1(1) of the Natural Health Products Regulations made under the Food and Drugs Act." It is also noteworthy that neither Stop C-51/Stop C-6 nor the NHPPA bothered to make themselves available to appear before the House Standing Committee on Health when the the Bill was reviewed.
