Canada subsidizes its pharma companies and provides socialized medicine to Canadians via high taxes on its citizens.
Here's a side story totally off topic......
Back in the late 70's my company was the premier manufacturer of railway cars in the U.S. which were manufactured at our Red Lion plant in Pennsylvania.
We lost all our contracts to Bombardier of Canada that was being subsidized by the Canadian govt. and our plant was closed down.
Sorry to hear that!
It’s long passed time we address this sort of garbage.

Actually, your story IS VERY relevant to this drug story. We have very few, if any, pharma plants in the US anymore as Uncle Sugar allowed foreign manufacturing of meds.
This means loss of availability, quality, and higher prices because of that availability issue.
