NAN Chief Not Happy With Generic OxyContin

The Nishnawbe Aski Nation isn’t happy with Health Canada’s decision to allow manufacturers to create generic, less expensive OxyContin.
NAN feels the move is a blow to northern First Nations who are currently fighting a drug epidemic.
Deputy Grand Chief Alvin Fiddler is urging the Health Minster to delay the decision until more research is done.
