It's a good thing these drug companies just break even on vaccinations, imagine if they made billions of dollars on them! Things might get out of control like hyping mass vaccinations for everyone! These drug companies work for the common good of society, I say we should make it mandatory for them to inject us with whatever they say we need. Whoever questions these private companies need to be jailed for being stupid.

I agree, pharmaceuticals are interested in making profits and that is actually a huge problem that exists but for different reasons than what you suggest. There is less emphasis placed on developing new antibiotics for instance because the potential financial reward isn't there. The question that I have for you though, is whether something bring for profit necessarly makes it a bad thing. Oil and gas is obviously for profit, yet it heats our homes and prevents us from exposure. Pharmaceuticals are the same way, they are for profit, but at the same time they provide us with medication that is potentially lifesaving and can prevent a lot of heartbreak and suffering.
I don't believe that there are any kickbacks regarding vaccinations or any other medications in Canada.
