Cheap Prescription Drugs Creating New Brand of US Tourist in Canada, Mexico

By the busload, thousands of American seniors are crossing over into Canada and Mexico to stock up on the one valuable commodity they can’t seem to find at home — affordable

is growing: from Maine to Quebec and New Brunswick, from the state of Washington to Calgary or Vancouver, from Arizona, Texas and California to Mexico.
