“Come on hospitals. There are some web sites in Canada where you can get everything you need.”
Canada controls the price of drugs sold to Canadians. By international agreement US suppliers sell an allotment of drugs to each country that controls their price. The sale price to the country may or may not pay for the cost of the drugs. But in exchange for selling them the companies charge whatever they like in the United States. The drugs you buy from Canada come from the Canadian allotment. The seller can make more money selling to you than to Canadians. This is why there are frequent and sometimes fatal drug shortages in Canada. It’s common that for want of a simple prescription pill that Canadians are medevac’d to the United States.
It was humor. Evidently I am the only one who gets these Canadian Pharmacy E-mails about on-line drugs available to me. I hope not too many Canadians died in the great Viagra to US migration of '07.
