Health Minister Patty Hajdu says Canada is paying inflated prices for personal protective equipment.
She says the global market is extremely competitive as every country vies for the limited supply.
She says Canada is keeping an eye on the cost, but is focused on getting what's needed.
Health Canada is also taking measures to guard against fraud and counterfeit PPE that's being produced.
