What this source does not establish

This is the complete published DPD extract, not the separately licensed natural health products database, the CCDD clinical terminology dataset or provincial formulary eligibility.
The publisher page advertises file dates independently of the products’ own last-update dates; neither is silently replaced by collection time.
Record identity is DRUG_CODE. DINs are verbatim eight-digit strings and can repeat across historical observations; Not Applicable/non applicable is retained but never indexed as a DIN.
Veterinary and disinfectant products are collected as separate kinds and excluded from Doctofam prescriptions. Radiopharmaceuticals retain their own kind.
Schedules C/D, homeopathic and prescription-recommended designations alone do not establish Rx/OTC classification; missing, mixed and unrecognised classifications remain unknown. Ethical is federally non-prescription professional use.
Package descriptions and UPC values are publisher observations, not unique package records. No pack identifier, interchangeability, stock or patient eligibility is inferred.
The actual therapeutic-class export has four columns rather than the current read-me’s seven; the fourth remains raw without an inferred meaning.
Corporate addresses are withheld from normalized and raw records. Original source archives remain retained as evidence. No product monograph URLs are published in these extracts, and no clinical documents are copied.
The linked legacy copyright notice requires permission for commercial reproduction. The Open Government portal also lists this dataset, but its current licence could not be verified during review; commercial derived-data reuse remains unconfirmed and the owner accepts this documented rights gap under the country brief.
