Thank you so much, Mr. Chair.

I want to thank everyone for the important conversations today.

I will be directing my questions to Mr. Agnew again.

Mr. Agnew, part 5 of Bill C-8 is related to the COVID-19 proof-of-vaccination fund. It is to ensure that the Government of Canada continues to support provinces and territories in implementing proof of vaccination by introducing the proof-of-vaccination fund.

Here is my question for you. Across the country, there are different provinces that are making different decisions around the vaccine passports. How important do you think it is for us to continue to have this type of fund?
