FDA pressures Canadian law enforcement to halt competition for prescription drugs
by Mike Adams, the Health Ranger, NaturalNews Editor
The FDA is strongarming Canadian law enforcement officials in an attempt to shut down Canadian companies that sell prescription drugs to U.S. consumers. Why would they do such a thing? To protect the profits of the U.S. drug industry, of course. The FDA, you see, functions as a hired gun for the pharmaceutical industry. It put the interests of private industry as its top priority, all the while screwing U.S. consumers who are forced to pay outrageous fees for drugs sold under a monopoly drug racket in the U.S.
- WASHINGTON - Federal drug regulators said Tuesday they can't do much
to compel an Ontario-based company exporting lower cost prescription
drugs to the United States to follow federal drug laws, so they will
seek help from the Canadian government.
- CanaRX has been accused of breaking the laws and had until Tuesday to
begin following them.
- Tom McGinnis, director of pharmacy affairs for the Food and Drug
administration (news - web sites), said the problem is that the company
is not located in the United States.
- We're going to need to rely on Health Canada."
