Canada's first and only centre dedicated exclusively to alternatives to animal testing. Think outside the cage! Time to make human biology the gold standard!

Historic day! Govt of Canada passed new law that will pave the way to end toxicity testing in animals! Huge thanks to all MPs/senators & all the groups, including our ED, who worked so hard to make this happen! #canada #cdnpoli #21stcentury #science #innovation #ethics

Canada has made major moves toward phasing out unnecessary and cruel toxicity testing on animals. Now the federal government needs to fund those working on alternative methods, like @CCAAM_CaCVAM. My latest for @globeandmail: https://t.co/UYS3eErD8o

The reliance on animals in both drug and toxicity testing is cruel, ineffective and archaic – an old model in desperate need of modernization

Today is the 10th anniversary of the historic, standard-setting EU #cosmetic #animaltesting ban! A whole decade and 40+ countries later, Canada is yet to follow suit! Time for @CanadianPM @liberal_party to fulfil platform promise to end cosmetic animal testing by 2023!
