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.
5 - Does a poster (developed by Canadian pharma company) intended to be used at an international conference need PAAB approval?
-
Yes, if it originates in Canada and is controlled by the Canadian pharmaceutical company, it is subject to the PAAB Code. You can also see requirements for promotion/information at international meetings in the Health Canada guideline "The Distinction Between Advertising and Other Activities" that is available on the Health Canada web-site.
