The manufacturer is the same, but manufacturers rarely sell directly to consumers. They sell to pharmacies, and medications at Canadian pharmacies are (surprise) generally priced based on whatever price controls and negotiated rates apply to Canadians. When those rates are 1/10th of the USA cost for the same drug from the same factory the same lot number, either someone's getting the drugs at less than cost or someone else is getting screwed on price.
Or put differently, "Why does the USA fund so much of basic drug research and drug company profits daddy?" "Regulatory capture and bought politicians, son."
