Yeah your health care system sucks there, we also have access to generic medications before you do too because your patent laws on drugs are longer than ours (once the patent is off, the recipe for making the medication is sold to a generic company to be made by them and then sold at a lower price). We also have governmental laws on regulating drug prices, so that keeps the prices down. The success of the industry has gone down since Bush put in the Medicare Part D drug program to discourage Americans buying from Canada. So much politics involved back then.. packages being held at customs, stuff on the news that Canada's drugs aren't up to standard (even though we use the same brands as the US does lol), threats that American's will be fined or sent to prison if they were caught buying medication from Canada . It was nice talking to Americans that were grateful for the help.
