I'm signing this petition, but without any real expectation that Health Canada will ever get anything right. The private sector is the solution, and always has been. People need to educate themselves and then act according to what they've learned. I supplement with far more Vitamin D3 than the recommended dosage, and I'm also not afraid of going out into the sun without sunscreen. There are some Vitamin D benefits that cannot be obtained without sunshine. You should probably petition Health Canada to stop recommending that people slather themselves with toxic sunscreen before going outside.
