Thank you very much, Mr. Chair.

Mr. Drouin, as you know, yesterday, we held an emergency debate on vaccines. We asked a bunch of questions on the number of vaccines and we received some answers. We will have 6 million doses by the end of March, 26 million by the end of June and 80 million by December 31.

I have done a lot of calculating and I would like to ask you the following questions.

Is it reasonable to think that we will manage to get between 1.6 and 1.9 million vaccines per week? How much is this rapid purchase of foreign vaccines and the rapid vaccination program going to cost?
