According to an article in the National Post, tickets for the event cost $1,500. You can see that article at: http://news.nationalpost.com/news/canada/canadian-politics/justin-trudeau-fundraiser- picketed-by-jewish-group-over-liberals-support-for-iran-nuclear-deal. At the time of the event, Apotex was registered to lobby the House of Commons (which means it confirmed that it was lobbying at least some MPs, possibly including Mr. Trudeau) and Mr. Sherman was included as a registered lobbyist in that registration. Currently, Apotex (including Mr. Sherman), along with several consultant lobbyists it has hired since March 1, 2016, are all registered to lobby the Prime Minister’s Office. The consultant lobbyists registered to lobby the Prime Minister’s Office on behalf of Apotex are Aaron Dobbin, John Duffy, Andrew Steele, Brian Teefy and Danya Vered (all five work at StrategyCorp Inc.), as well as Lester Scheininger.

    THE SUPREME COURT’S SANOFI DECISION: THREE YEARS LATER* Patrick S. Smith and Donald M. Cameron** ABSTRACT In 2008, the Supreme Court of Canada’s decision in Apotex Inc. v. Sanofi-Synthelabo Canada Inc. restated the test for anticipation under Canadian patent law to expressly include enablement. Sanofi also provided an analytical approach for obviousness and provided the option of using the “obvious to try” test in areas where inventions are often won by experimentation.

  • Biomedical Conflicts of Interest: a Defence of the Sequestration Thesis
    Biomedical Conflicts of Interest: a defence of the sequestration thesis Learning from the cases of Nancy Olivieri and David Healy Arthur Schafer, Centre for Professional and Applied Ethics, University of Manitoba, Canada Abstract No discussion of academic freedom, research integrity and patient safety could begin with a more disquieting pair of case studies than those of Nancy Olivieri and David Healy. The cumulative impact of the Olivieri and Healy affairs has caused serious self-examination within the biomedical research community. The first part of the essay analyses this pair of recent academic scandals. The two case studies are then placed in their historical context – that context being the transformation of the norms of science through increasingly close ties between research universities and the corporate world. After a literature survey of the ways in which corporate sponsorship has biased the results of clinical drug trials, two different strategies to mitigate this problem are identified and assessed: a regulatory approach, which focuses on managing risks associated with industry funding of university research, and a more radical approach, the sequestration thesis, which counsels the outright elimination of corporate sponsorship. The reformist approach is criticized and the radical approach defended. Two case studies: Olivieri and Healy The leading individual roles in this diptych are taken by two internationally eminent medical researchers, haematologist Nancy Olivieri and psychiatrist David Healy. The institutional players include one research-intensive university (the University of Toronto) and two affiliated research-intensive teaching hospitals (the Hospital for Sick Children, referred to as “Sick Kids” and the Centre for Addiction and Mental Health, referred to as “CAMH”).
