Shawn Buckley (featured in the videos below) is a Kamloops-based constitutional lawyer and is president of the Natural Health Products Protection Association (NHPPA). He has challenged earlier versions of Bill C-36 (Bills C- 52 & 6), that died due to nation-wide opposition from vendors of natural health products and consumers of natural health products. Responding to outrage from vendors and consumers of natural health products, the government and MPs backed off, specifically exempting natural health products in the latest version of Bill C-36.

However, in spite of the exemption, Buckley remains concerned that Bill C-36 is still a 'Trojan horse' that will ultimately pave the way for government to re-introduce the same sweeping provisions that by-pass the rule of law to apply to Canada's natural health industry. This industry has been under constant siege since natural health products were included under the Food & Drug Act in 2004. As a result of Natural Health Product regulations, thousands of products have become unavailable to consumers, restricting access to healthcare alternatives.
