Three senior scientists who worked in the veterinary drugs directorate
of Health Canada, where they were involved in drug approvals, have
been fired. The three were well known for repeatedly criticizing the
department's policies, claiming they felt pressured to approve certain
drugs despite concerns they could present a danger to consumers.

It's a Liberal Party Government.
2000 General Election Contributions to the Liberal Party:
Pfizer - $14,000
Glaxo Welcome - $14,750
Merck Frosst - $2112.49
No access to the 2004 election contributions, yet.
Amazing how much influence in gov't you can buy for a measly few
thousand dollars.
