For amusement purposes I bother to look up news reports, and read it's the same impurity in both drugs, taken over a very long period of time (defined as 70 years!), with the risk being so minimal they tell people to finish their current batch and then look for an alternative.
I don't care for giant firms, but that's exactly what regulatory bodies and recalls are for. This should be used as an example of a functioning society, which we know Canada is.
