New England is at the center of a national trend to look to Canada for cheaper prescription drugs. And the Granite State is right in the middle of it. Governor Benson says going over the border for medication will save the state money, but others aren't so sure the savings will add up. And they argue, it might not be safe. Laura's guests are Keith Herman, Policy Advisor for Governor Benson, and Charlie Arlinghaus, Director of the Josiah Bartlett Center For Public Policy.
