On 12 May 2022, the Supreme Court of Canada dismissed an application by Canada RNA Biochemical (C-RNA) for leave to appeal(1) a decision of the Federal Court of Appeal relating to the refusal of a natural health product (NHP) licence for C-RNA's oral lumbrokinase capsules (Boluoke).
The Federal Court of Appeal did not find any reviewable error (for further details, see "Federal Court of Appeal upholds minister of health's refusal to grant NHP licence for Boluoke") in:
- the decision of the minister of health to refuse granting an NHP licence for Boluoke; or
- the Federal Court's reasoning (for further details, see "Federal Court dismisses application for judicial review of Health Canada's refusal to grant NHP licence for BOLUOKE oral lumbrokinase capsules") in dismissing C-RNA's application for judicial review of the minister's decision.
