Out today in @CMAJ: @srinmurthy99 I call out the lack of enforcement of clinical trial registration & results reporting norms by @GovCanHealth. We argue that market entry should be tied to trial transparency. cmaj.ca/content/196/18/E628 CC @moher_david @NavPersaud @MA_Gagnon

Nearly a year since @HoCCommittees began its study of the PMRPB. The last witnesses (myself & Doug Clark) appeared on May 2, 2023. And still no report published! What's the delay?
