Question money

I have noticed that in some of the posts there is mention of insurance companies not paying for some treatments. Being a good Canadian, I have no idea what chemo treatments cost. Can anyone give me a ball park figure of what a year of herceptin costs? Anyone know what my chemo would have cost? I think I better give my little red and white health card a big kiss !!!
