Canadian HIV/AIDS Legal Network News Release - Campaign for 'universal access' to medicines goes global

24 March 2010

The Canadian HIV/AIDS Legal Network is joining a global movement of legal and trade experts, activists and students, grandmothers' groups and labour organisations. They are calling on the Canadian government to use its current leadership position to ensure greater access to medicines for AIDS and other public health needs in developing countries, notably by passing Bill C-393, which proposes to streamline Canada's Access to Medicines Regime.
