To: Poison Pill

What this will do is raise the price of drugs in Canada and lower them in the U.S. Other countries “negotiate” a significantly lower price for the drugs. The pills themselves don’t cost much to make; it is the R&D and FDA costs that they have to recuperate plus profit. The U.S. has foot the bill for most of these costs over the years. President Trump is working towards other countries paying their fair share for the drug’s R&D, etc.

In the case of Canada and several other countries we make the drug here, ship it to Canada, and then bring it back here to use. Have to watch out for countries like India, etc. that make crap for pills.
