Hi good people,
I am pondering a move to Canada but scared due to the humongous medicine costs over there. There's one medicine for cancer ( I am in remission currently) that I take regularly. Its pirced almost 70x in Canada compared to India, even with 80% insurance (which will be very costly), its still coming to 20x.
However, some folks that I interacted with have told me that they are able to import meds from other countries. Does Canada allow importing of prescription meds, if so - what are the taxes levied.
Can someone please guide me.
