OTTAWA - The Supreme Court of Canada has invalidated the Viagra patent held by pharmaceutical giant Pfizer, opening the marketplace to cheaper versions of the popular erectile dysfunction drug.

In a 7-0 decision, the high court sided with Teva Canada's challenge of the legitimacy of the patent. It annulled Pfizer's patent, saying it tried to "game" the system.
