Petition Background (Preamble):
$30,000 a year is too much!
Remicade® Users Unite was established April 28, 2012 to give a voice to all Canadians who want to pay a reasonable price for the prescription intravenous infusion drug Remicade®.
Remicade® Users Unite is lobbying Canada's provincial and territorial governments to combine their buying power and purchase Remicade® in bulk. By working together and buying in bulk, we believe we can get a better price on Remicade®, and so make it more affordable and available to those who need it.

Petition:
We, the undersigned, call on The Council of the Federation, created December 5, 2003 by Canada's provincial and territorial premiers to foster a constructive and cooperative federal system, to work together now to purchase Remicade®.
We call upon our health ministers to jointly negotiate a reasonable price for Remicade®, a drug which so many Canadians rely upon for their health and well-being.
Please, sign the Remicade® Users Unite petition, and join us in raising our voices against exorbitant drug costs.
