Ontario, what are we waiting for? Alyftrek has been approved in Canada for more than a year. Yet people with cystic fibrosis in Ontario are still waiting for publicly funded access.

People with cystic fibrosis can’t wait. Tell Ontario it’s time to act. Send a letter to your elected official calling for publicly funded access to Alyftrek: New/Mode | Make your voice impossible to ignore
