The pharma industry got to him.

If you can't block it at the destination, block it at the source. No way Pharma wants Floridians buying drugs at Canadian prices, and they'll do anything they can to stop it.

Why should we be subsidizing your garbage industry? Negotiate it yourself. Florida alone has half the population of the entirety of Canada.

Even if only Florida tried to negotiate, it would get similar prices to what Canada achieves.
