    • Mélanie Joly · Minister of Industry and Minister responsible for Canada Economic Development for Quebec Regions, Innovation, Science and Economic Development Canada (ISED)
    232 tariffs. As of Sept. 30th, 100% tariffs apply to Canada for commercial drug shipments to the US. The companies' goal is to ensure this issue is on the radar of our Federal government administrations (e.g. ISED) and politicians. I plan to contact their offices (calls, emails, in person where possible) to make them aware of the risk to the Canadian CDMO industry, manufacturing jobs, and to Canada's Life Science commercialization strategy. My goal is for this issue to be on the agenda to address by our trade negotiators if and when trade negitiations resume so they can be reduced to something reasonable (e.g. Europe is 15% whereas Canada is 100%).
