Welcome to the Canada Pharmacy Report. It is my hope that this site will ultimately become the best place online to find out all the latest news regarding pharmacy. Since I'm involved in the industry, I want to be kept abreast of what's going on. However, I don't have time to surf the 'Net every day to find the latest stories. When I find articles, I'll post the links here. I'm really counting on the assistance of everyone else with an interest in the industry to send me links they find. This site will only be as good as the contributors make it. If you find a relevant link, send it to info@canadapharmacynews.com
