I thought we were talking about Canadian price controls here, not subsidies.

That is, I thought that the Canadian system mandated that the (mostly American) drug companies not charge more than $X for particular drugs, and that the reimportation proposals would let American resellers (pharmacies and hospitals) resell drugs that they purchased in Canada for these capped prices.

I see nothing in that scenario that involved Canadians paying for the drugs Americans use.

I only see a greater proportion of the drug companies sales going into price controlled markets.

well something has to give if the price is artificially low and americans get to go for all their cheap drugs. There won’t be anything left for canadians
