Health Canada has issued a public advisory warning the public not to buy prescription medication unless it’s sold from a licensed pharmacy.
The advisory comes in the wake of a Health Canada raid at Ezra Healing in Kelowna, B.C.
It states that using the unauthorized drugs may come with serious health risks.
“Health Canada had no right to come in and destroy something that is bringing hope and healing to people,” said Ezra Healing owner Svetlana Rilkoff. “Health Canada has not done their homework. They have not done their research.”
On Oct. 30, Health Canada seized a range of unauthorized health products, including Ivermectin, an anti-parasitic drug.
Rilkoff claims the anti-parasitic drug helps cure cancer and Covid-19 injuries.
“They want to take away all my Ivermectin that heals cancer and vaccine injury,” Rilkoff said in a video she captured and later posted as Health Canada officials are seen seizing the product in the background.
Rilkoff, a former nurse who says she was terminated for refusing the COVID-19 vaccine, claims about $200,000 in products were seized.
