The Canadian Foundation for Pharmacy is honoured to recognize the extraordinary contributions of Glenn Rodrigues, recipient of the 2026 Pillar of Pharmacy Award. Few people have left a mark on pharmacy as profound and far-reaching, in his home province of Nova Scotia and across Canada. Read more about Glenn’s story here.

Glenn will be honoured posthumously at the Pillar of Pharmacy Dinner on November 4 in Dartmouth, Nova Scotia. Check CFP’s Events for details. Book your hotel room by October 5 to receive a special rate.

Every year, the Canadian Foundation for Pharmacy honours one exceptional leader in the profession with the prestigious Pillar of Pharmacy Award. Could it be you or someone you know? Nominations for the 2027 Pillar of Pharmacy will open early in 2027.

Candidates must be actively involved in one of these sectors: community pharmacy and pharmacy profession; pharmacy academia; provincial and national pharmacist/pharmacy organizations; or pharmacy-sector related industries. They should also have experience mentoring pharmacy students or pharmacy technicians via a formal or informal program.
