Why drug approval in Canada should not rely on foreign regulators - Feddit UK

Timely. Health Canada used to second guess the FDA, but now they are rubber stamping FDA approvals of insanely expensive drugs that don’t work.
I’m a biomedical researcher who works with biotechs, drug companies and I have yet to understand what the 10,000 people who work at Health Canada actually do. We even started allowing drug marketing to consumers which is illegal in Canada.

Quebec has had enough and started refusing to pay for $400,000/yr drugs that do nothing.
