The Canadian Treatment Action Council firmly believes that health information is for the public good and should not be profit-driven. CTAC fully supports, in principle, the establishment of educational programs, including those funded by industry, and administered by a neutral third party. CTAC does not support any relaxation of the current DTCA Regulations and is strongly opposed to DTCA for medications used to treat HIV/AIDS or associated conditions.
