What I've seen indicated that it was a combination of supply chain issues as well as reports of hyperthermia (overheating) associated with its use. One of the practicing PAs might have a better idea. I haven't used scopolamine in decades (never personally - motion sickness was never a problem)...

No longer familiar with the military formulary, but if the patch of choice was Scopolamine (i.e., Transderm V) the reason would be because it's no longer available in Canada.

Sleep walker? :sleep:

Rain soaked hikers? Why such an extraneous description? It's BC. Everything is rain soaked.

Actually, the Alberta Elections Act does permit a candidate (not just the winning candidate) to examine (and to receive a copy of) the voting record for the electoral district in which he ran. The voting record will indicate who voted and thus one can determine who didn't vote. However the Act...
