An observation of the future? You say 'will do'. Is that an indication that currently the opposite is the case?

Why do no major medical or drug developments come out of Canada from Canadian companies or the Candian healthcare system? when you think about it, it seems that the US actually subsidizes Canadian healthcare doesn't it?

Canada is a very small country vs. the United States. I would expect its contribution to the science to be proportional. Do you have any numbers to back up your claim that they are not 'doing their share' on the research side of things? Or is this just inflammatory material.
Europe, and France in particular, have made major contributions which would mean even if Canada is slouching, the fact they have public health care isn't necessarily to blame.
