Last weekend, on October 25, 2015, the Access Our Medicine Initiative officially reached the halfway point to our goal of 100,000 Signatures on the Declaration for Affordable Medicine!
Reaching 50,000 signatures was an amazing moment, and we saw tons of enthusiasm from our supports across every social media platform. Just a few days later, our Facebook page reached 1000 likes!
Our project manager, Jaskaran, sat down with Tides Canada for a little chat about what this milestone means, what we’ve learned, and the many exciting things that are still to come. Read on!
“We need to rethink how medicines are developed and distributed. We’re in a position to push for innovative solutions here in Canada as well as set a precedent for the rest of the world to collaborate and tackle one of the most important issues of our time.” -Jaskaran, Access Our Medicine Senior Project Manager
