Forum Update: Supporting Community-Led Discussion
The forum was created as a space for shared learning and peer support, and as the community grows, we want to lean more fully into that purpose.
Going forward, PAAB will be taking a more listening-first role in forum discussions. Rather than responding immediately to every question, we’ll be encouraging members to engage with one another, share experiences, and help build collective understanding. PAAB will continue to monitor conversations and will step in to:
- Correct any misunderstandings
- Provide guidance when questions remain unanswered after a few days
- Support discussions where official clarification is needed
Our goal is to foster a collaborative, trusted community where knowledge is shared and strengthened by everyone’s contributions.
Thank you for being part of the conversation.

Hello,
I am currently on the Marketing to Consumers PAAB training, and was wondering where the "Current Regulations - DTC" resource disappeared to. The link currently takes you to a no results page(https://www.paab.ca/resources/current-regulations/). Would the "Online Activities" supplemental guidance page be the next best resource? Any further direction would help. Thanks!

Hello @tbalzarini
Thank you for bringing this to our attention. We will update shortly. In the meantime, the Health Canada “Guidance on Distinction Between Advertising and Other Activities for Health Products” resource should be consulted.
