The billionaire founder of Canadian generic drug Apotex Inc, Barry Sherman, and his wife Honey, were found dead in their Toronto home on Friday under what police described as "suspicious" circumstances.
Honey and Barry Sherman
Police said they were investigating the mysterious deaths after responding to a midday medical call at the Sherman’s home in an affluent section of northeast Toronto. Two bodies covered in blankets were removed from the home and loaded into an unmarked van on Friday evening.
“The circumstances of their death appear suspicious and we are treating it that way,” said Constable David Hopkinson. Homicide detectives later told reporters gathered outside the home that there were no signs of forced entry, and no suspects were being sought as of this moment.

The Shermans recently listed their home for sale for nearly C$7 million ($5.4 million). A real estate agent discovered the bodies in the basement while preparing for an open house, the Toronto Globe and Mail reported, citing a relative.
Their neighbors, who according to Reuters include business associates and some of Canada’s most powerful politicians said they were saddened by the deaths.
Deeply shocked to learn of the deaths of Honey and Barry Sherman, such remarkable people. Grappling with this terrible news.

“Our condolences to their family & friends, and to everyone touched by their vision & spirit,” Prime Minister Justin Trudeau wrote on Twitter.
Sophie and I are saddened by news of the sudden passing of Barry and Honey Sherman. Our condolences to their family & friends, and to everyone touched by their vision & spirit.

Linda Frum, a member of the Canadian Senate, said she was "gutted by the loss" of the couple, two weeks after presenting a Senate medal "to one of the kindest and most beloved members of Canada's Jewish community."
Ontario's health minister, Eric Hoskins, described the couple in a tweet as "wonderful human beings, incredible philanthropists, great leaders in healthcare."
I am beyond words right now. My dear friends Barry and Honey Sherman have been found dead. Wonderful human beings, incredible philanthropists, great leaders in health care. A very, very sad day. Barry, Honey, rest in peace.

Toronto Mayor John Tory said in statement he was “shocked and heartbroken” to learn of the deaths, noting that the couple had made extensive contributions to the city.
“Toronto Police are investigating, and I hope that investigation will be able to provide answers for all of us who are mourning this tremendous loss,” Tory said.
Sherman, 75, founded privately-held Apotex in 1974, growing it into the world's 7th largest drugmaker and the largest Canadian-owned pharmaceutical firm, with annual sales of more than C$2 billion and over 11,000 employees, by introducing large numbers of low-cost generic drugs that took market share from branded pharmaceuticals. He stepped down as chief executive in 2012 but remained executive chairman.
"All of us at Apotex are deeply shocked and saddened by this news and our thoughts and prayers are with the family at this time," the company said in a statement.
Barry Sherman was ranked 363 on Forbes richest people in the world list; the publication put his net worth at $3.7 billion. He ranked just above eBay billionaire Jeffrey Skoll, and was believed to be the 5th richest person in Canada. The couple was known for their philanthropy, giving tens of millions of dollars to hospitals, universities and Jewish organizations, CBC reported. “They were extremely successful in business, but also very, very giving people,” former Ontario Premier Bob Rae told CBC. “It’s going to be a very, very big loss.”
While there is no additional information on whether the suicide was foul play , in February the Globe and Mail reported that Lobbying Commissioner Karen Shepherd was investigating a complaint about a 2015 political fundraiser that Trudeau had attended.
How much for the house WITHOUT the bodies in the basement?
coup coup nest
Hillary is touring Canada promoting her loser book. Maybe she had them Arkancided just for the hell of it. Someone check her ankle bracelet GPS coordinates from the last couple of days.
Turf war casualty among drug pushers. You can find this in any major city. East LA, Baltimore, Chicago, Miami are riddled with bodies. The only difference is you don't read about mayors and other politicians in those cities being "shocked and heartbroken" when one of their constituents is murdered.
Was a nail gun mentioned?
Nope - this one's marked as suspicious - that's how you can tell the clintons werent involved in it
Proof that Greed Is indeed a deadly sin
Hey I'm on that Clopidogrel stuff. Maybe my Cardiologist told them he was going to take me off of it and they couldn't handle the news.
Yes, I'm a very important customer. Sometimes I think I and my insurance company provide 100% of drug makers profits.
who would take pill called clopidogrel?
Well, probably the same folks that would take a drug called plavix ..
You know it occurs to me from previous experience, every time I went to the doctor he found something wrong. So I devised an ingenious method to beat this medical racket. I quit going to doctors! Eat more eggs and bacon. Fuck it ..
Now drink your eggnog ..
I'm making over $15k a month working part time. I kept hearing other people tell me how much money they can make online so I decided to look into it. Well, it was all true and has totally changed my life. This is what I do... http://disq.us/url?url=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.Jobzon3.com%3Ab8eR_DQLwGRPVGtFvv...
In response to FBI's offer of assistance, Canadian authorities issued the statement: "You're kidding, eh?"
FBI will blame the Russians and Trump...
"introducing large numbers of low-cost generic drugs that took market share from branded pharmaceuticals"
I wonder who might have done it....
"some of Canada’s most powerful politicians said they were saddened"
Looks like Canadian politicians are jewish-bought just like their American counterparts. http://bit.ly/1W8Hl3Z
Drug Dealers always getting knocked off
Suspicious Deaths... You Think ?
A PHd Drug Co owner hangs himself and his wife also hangs herself...
Quite Painfull To Say The Least...
When using the right drugs to commit suicide could be a LOT less painful
.
WTF ?
O.D. ?
“Sorry.”
~ Canada
She was killed by some other method then moved to the basement and hanged?
That does not sound like something her elderly husband might be able to do. That was a message being sent by professionals.
I don't have any sympathy for someone who basically stole his company years ago from his family members when they were orphaned, and refused to pay them the piitance that he was supposed to.
(A) Barry caught Honey in bed with her Russian dance instructor

or
(B) TEVA Pharmaceuticals took revenge by deployig Israel's mossad to do a hit job. Israel Joo befelt betrayed by Canadian Joo and had to layoff 14,000 employees.
http://www.philly.com/philly/business/sex-drugs-and-sharing-trade-secret...
Barinder Sandhu was Teva’s senior director of regulatory affairs for U.S. generics between 2014 and 2016 when, the lawsuit says, she used USB flash drives to download confidential files on her work-issued laptop, synced a folder titled “My Drive” with about 900 documents to a cloud-based account, and sent them to Jeremy Desai her boyfriend, the president and CEO of a rival generic-drug company, Apotex Inc. It went beyond shop talk to slipping confidential company information to a lover about medicines being developed, and those approved, for the public.
There's a tie between them and Mr Trudeau being elected, follow the money and you'll discover it goes to the PM's office.
I used to work there. My buddy is still there and he said that recently there are big issues at the company. Cut backs and lay-offs. Before I left they were planning a huge manufacturing expansion. There were also law suites against Barry by other family members about money. When they first reported there was no forced entry, I thought someone with keys? Family member? But then that might be too obvious. Another friend of mine said she heard it was a murder suicide on local news.
Are you selling clopadogrel?
Why don't you try a few restaurants, I understand the waiters are paid fucking peanuts
Onward Christian Scientist soldier.
No joke, you've got the right idea.
Mechanic Doc = OK for cuts, scraps, & breaks.
The other kind = No Thank U.
"every time I went to the doctor he found something wrong..."
No shit! Same here. The one time something was wrong, they missed it and it cost me 70% of my kidneys, which was followed by a series of additional mistakes that resulted in a week in the hospital and two surgeries. Almost all of the hospital deaths are caused by human error.
OK. Now go get your flu shot.
They always find shit that's not there. Then they operate to find it.
Kaiser?
"I quit going to doctors"
LOL I know exactly what you mean. I've discovered that as soon as they send you to a new specialist for some obscure perceived illness, the new Doc has his hooks into you. You can never go just a time or two. It's like, "I want to see you again every 3 months so we can monitor this." Ha ha ha ha. They all want to get you on the revolving door to regular office visit fees.
And the follow-up visits? for what? my wife has spent over $1,000,000.00 at our local hospiatl/clinic conglomerate. We get free parking and free refills in the cafetreia. Well, tehcnically we don't, I just refuse to pay for parking ans I steal my refills.
and stuff like this is exactly why medical costs are spiraling out of control. ask any insurance company: they'll tell you it's so
Doctors down there seem to operate like dentists up here. Dentists are always looking to sell you something here but if you actually need a specialist up here you wait, sometimes a long time.
For 50 years, I paid into my State pension , 3 weeks before I was due to retire and the State had to start paying me, I received a letter from my local hospital offering me a free check up "They can go fuck themselves"
a wise man you are.
Should have had private security. If you are that rich and can afford it, you're crazy not to.
the games skype play. did they like hot dogs and pizza. now they cant talk
Yep. It's madness.
The suicide note is very relevant:
"To whom it may coner: This is not murder. We committed suicide. I hung myself and then hung my wife."
That whole area he lives in is like a production stage. Every house there is in the multi million $ price tag and everyone has CCTV. I didn't hear if Barry also had it or any entry security devices, but if he didn't, he wasn't thinking.
A mongrel dog with clap?
"who would take pill called clopidogrel?"
You don't have to pronounce it every day. Just swallow it!
And so (from first hand experience with my stent) if you desire to get OFF DAPT, Clopidogrel, Plavix, Lisinopril, Nitro, baby asprin , I forget what else.. But DAPT. if you want to get OFF DAPT.
Then
Stop consuming wheat, iodized salt, and straight sugar, stop eating most white things. Stop combust smoking. stop drinking. Eat a CARROT, BEET and APPLE every day. (even if it's a small amount cause of the CARBS...)
Take suppliments, Lipo C, D3/5k, Magnesium
Fix your nutrition. That's number one, the weight will come off the blood pressure will go down, your lung capacity will return, your strength comes back, your vision improves, your inflamation reduced, on an on and on
After your weight drops and you can see your private parts again, start working out with some exercises of some kind.
Working all day can be equal to it. Ex move your friend's home in 108 degree heat.
I don't carry nitroglycerin with me anymore. I don't take baby asprin either. I am doing everyone else who still eating and consuming this stuff's work now. I look at everyone's mortality differently now. I can almost see it in your belly/body/face and I am not even a doctor, I know exactly what your problem is.
FORK and the MOUTH
(consider drugs high carbs poisons as part of the FORK but either way when it hits the MOUTH it's your call at that point.)
I recall the ANGINA I had, my chest felt like I had indegestion for more than a decade or so, I was walking around with basically a heart attack for 20 years. (pack a day smoking a 6 pack a day drinking) Most people when they get this call, don't make it. Mostly I was so stupendeously drunk all the time that I wouldn't know if I had indigestion, thirst, poop or what might be causing the chest pain, and yet each night I would sleep with it not really even thinking of WHY it happens only the inconvienience and my mind questioning when the pain train ends the latest arrival!!! When I drank, I got maybe 2 hours of half-ass relief then I would spend 8+ hours of inflamaiton recovery, chest pain relief by farting.
Quit your bad habbits today and teach everyone you know the same. Don't find yourself like me waking up one day, with everyone I knew and loved nearly dead or already dead from the same bad lies what almost killed me. How many of your family who may be obese could you convince to stop putting this crap on the fork and try to stick around a few more decades?
You forgot getting laid.
There is a formula involved, basically if you get laid twice a day it negates all the other stuff. Three times a day and they retroactively put you in the Greek Pantheon.
Greed ??? Did u read the article ???
"sales of more than C$2 billion and over 11,000 employees, by introducing large numbers of low-cost generic drugs that took market share from branded pharmaceuticals."
That right there is the motive....
Also... (((we))) can't have tribe members undercutting each other... not good for business...
Probably a hunting accident. Deer were spotted in the area recently.
do you know much work it takes to hang two dead fatties up?
Clopidogrel ..
The most common side effect that occurs with clopidogrel is bleeding...
You can say that again !
