Thank you, Mr. Chair.
Thank you to both witnesses for being here.
Mr. Clark, you stated that the mission, or the raison d'ĂȘtre of the Patented Medicine Prices Review Board is to protect Canadians from excessive pricing. You've also pointed out that we have the third-highest prices among the OECD countries. In fact, I've actually heard they are the highest prices in the world.
Would it be fair to say that we are not meeting the goal of protecting Canadians from excessive pricing?
