Thank you for the question. I do have the information. Just give me two seconds.

Early on in the pandemic, we deployed over 400 ventilators from the national emergency strategic stockpile to the provinces and territories to address our anticipated needs. Since then, from the additional ventilators purchased, we have deployed over 500 additional ventilators to the provinces and territories.
