Context:

https://canadians.org/media/media-release-massive-lobbying-offensive-behind-pharmacare-funding-freeze-council-of-canadians/

This is one of the many insurance companies operating in Canada that have been making records this year by lobbying the government with about 25 million dollars, almost triple the amount of any year previous. By doing so they have successfully put brakes on the budget for pharmacare. The link above can explain the issue a lot better than me.

How high are you right meow?

This is a company opposing pharmacare. I guess I’m doing weed for wanting people to learn about their dealings.

I think the problem is you didn't add any context to your post, so it just looks like you just decided to post a random pharma company's wikipedia page.
