Canadian drug companies want new pricing regs delayed again until after pandemicAlmost three dozen Canadian pharmaceutical companies made a direct appeal to Prime Minister Justin Trudeau last month to delay the new drug pricing regulations for a third time. The cost of drugs is largely due to government standing in front of progress. You wanna lower drug pricing start lying off all these people that make the process slow as dirt. Some of them making $800,000 plus per yr and have nothing to do with innovation. IE mRNA is 15 yrs old. They want to know how far they can go in ripping people off for the medicine they need. Big Pharma hosing the little people, who can barely afford their medicine.
