OTTAWA — Health Minister Jean-Yves Duclos says he has not exercised any undue political pressure on the independent federal agency that regulates the price of patented drugs on its efforts to lower medicine costs.
The new regulation came into force in July, and would see the Patented Medicine Prices Review Board compare Canadian drug prices to those in a wider range of similar countries. One of the agency's board members resigned shortly afterward, saying Duclos undermined the board's independence.
