Excerpt
The legislation has a very wide reach, with implications for pharmaceutical, medical-device and other health-product companies, food manufacturers, and anyone that manufactures, imports, advertises, or sells consumer products.
''The breadth of the legislation really does impact on everyone by adding an enormous level of infrastructure throughout the supply chain,'' says Martha Healey of Ogilvy Renault LLP's Ottawa office. ''But it also goes so far as to affect individuals to the extent they give away or sell products at garage sales.''
Which means the legislation may be impacting on a host of organizations that don't realize they're affected until it's too late.
