Here in Canada, we have a half dozen competing generic drug manufacturers. They're not subsidized. My province has a public drug insurer that covers the elderly and very poor. It negotiates a common price as a large insurer tends to do. It's public information. It represents roughly the market cost in bulk to purchase these drugs from for-profit companies in Canada.

Indomethacin can be bought from four different companies at $C0.12 per tablet.
