Shouldn't there be a lot more stories about Canadians keeling over from scary crappy CHEAP pharms

[Phoebe Loosinhouse]

you know, the ones that are too scary and crappy for our government to ALLOW us to buy? yet which Canadians seem to use to good effect each and every day?

2. I'll let you in on a few of little secrets....

Canadian oversigh authorities has stricter regulations than the FDA; US pharmaceutical cos. do drug studies in Canada; their generics are manufactured by the same cos as our generics.

Or maybe you already knew. ;-)

3. I'm surprised there are any Canadians left. Sholdn't they be dropping like flies

from their cheap, dangerous drugs and horrible, socialized health care? And I just don't understand why the Canadians who aren't actually dead yet aren't desperately crossing the border to the U.S. so they can get The Best Health Care In The World?

4. but, but, if we got to buy cheaper Rx in Canada, who would buy the junk from China?

I swear my Rx for arthritis is just compressed filler and no meds now. Last refill did nada. Of course, there is the chance of some horrible contaminant in them, pretty sure the retailer gets them from Canada. And, no, I don't really have a choice. No other pharmacy for hours from here.

Hey, my current governor got into trouble with the feds a few years back when he was running for the senate. He was taking busloads of senior citizens to Canada for their meds. He is SO cool.

5. THere should be a LOT MORE such stories, but the Canadians are all

dead.
Their terrible Nazi health plan and non-US doctors did them in.
