CC Random thread

The primary goal of this site is to provide mature, meaningful discussion about the Vancouver Canucks. However, we all need a break some time so this forum is basically for anything off-topic, off the wall, or to just get something off your chest! This forum is named after poster Creeper, who passed away in July of 2011 and was a long time member of the Canucks message board community.

McKinsey Proposed Paying Pharmacy Companies Rebates for OxyContin Overdoses.

Court filings reveal consultants’ talk of a records purge during the opioid crisis, and shed new light on sales advice given to the billionaire Sackler family and their drug company, Purdue Pharma.

When Purdue Pharma agreed last month to plead guilty to criminal charges involving OxyContin, the Justice Department noted the role an unidentified consulting company had played in driving sales of the addictive painkiller even as public outrage grew over widespread overdoses.

Documents released last week in a federal bankruptcy court in New York show that the adviser was McKinsey & Company, the world’s most prestigious consulting firm. The 160 pages include emails and slides revealing new details about McKinsey’s advice to the Sackler family, Purdue’s billionaire owners, and the firm’s now notorious plan to “turbocharge” OxyContin sales at a time when opioid abuse had already killed hundreds of thousands of Americans.

In a 2017 presentation, according to the records, which were filed in court on behalf of multiple state attorneys general, McKinsey laid out several options to shore up sales. One was to give Purdue’s distributors a rebate for every OxyContin overdose attributable to pills they sold.

Over the Internet, you can pretend to be anyone or anything.

I'm amazed that so many people choose to be complete twats.

That was awful. And the undercard was a bigger farce. That Jake Paul idiot calling out Connor McGregor after he beats up a black dwarf that didn’t know how to fight. Welcome to 2020 where the Paul brothers are relevant. Trailer park trash

Any F1 fans see Grosjean's miraculous crash Sunday? Amazing he got out and walked away with burnt hands.

Both Lehner and Evander Kane want in on the action... :shock:

... and I would like to apologize for my countryman not knowing the difference between "your" and "you're", but in his defence, it's not his native language...

Anyway.... I get the feeling Lehner is bored and missing hockey. :?

Yeah it was pretty bad, now everyone wants to fight Jake Paul, like Evander Kane. Granted it was hosted by Triller a social media app so yeah.
