Thank you, Mr. Chair.
I'd like to also thank the minister and the department, not only for appearing in front of us once again, but also for the amazing work you've been doing.
Minister, my colleague, MP Drouin, wanted to focus on the first quarter, and vaccine procurement and the great work you've done. Just for the sake of Canadians—so many of them are watching—and making sure that you have an opportunity to send the message to Canadians, can you share with us what our plan was for Q2 and Q3 and what efforts you have made to increase those numbers? Also, what is our situation right now for Q2 and Q3?
That's for the initial estimates that you provided, with the now updated estimates, and the efforts that you and your department have made, whether through diplomatic efforts or direct conversations that you've had with the manufacturers.
