Great article and kudos to Dr. Frances Kelsey.  Too bad Canada didn't get to keep her and reap the benefits of her diligence; so many suffer here today with the fallout from thalidomide.

Should also be a warning call to all those screaming to cut "red tape" i.e. deregulate.  
Also for those crying about "fake news".

Where would  we be as a society with oversight, science and a free press to let us know what is going on?
