Canadian pharmaceutical R&D and manufacturing is almost entirely gone at this point.

A big part of that was little interest in supporting the industry from the government.

Apparently a vaccine manufacturer approached the government a while back and got a tepid response so decided to invest elsewhere.

That's definitely true, but I've some hope we'll be getting some back with the new gov't labs being built, and the AI hubs in Montreal and Toronto pushing the pharmacogenetics story.
