... Mark Carney launched GFANZ to unite global finance around net-zero; when the big banks quietly quit, he walked away too. Now he's rebranded as Canada's nationalist bulwark against Trump - e.g. his Davos conference bravado. 🤨 Sam Slick always had a new clock to sell. #CanadianPolitics #MarkCarney #SamSlick #cdnpoli

🇨🇦 Mark Carney #SamSlick -- Fed gov't prioritizing Canada’s pharma company profits https://www.policyalternatives.ca/news-research/the-federal-government-is-prioritizing-canadas-pharma-company-profits

health minister's speech to pharmaceutical industry’s most imp't association
bodes poorly for public health
2/3drugs fed gov't wants approved more rapidly are at best, minor therapeutic advances over existing products
main beneficiaries: companies making them, not the patients taking them - another point the health minister didn't mention
