It was information on my side, not a question.

I have a next question, Minister.

The Prime Minister has announced that every Canadian will receive one dose of the vaccine by July 1. Since two doses are required, no Canadian will actually be vaccinated by July 1.

How long will it take to get through the pandemic? Do we still see the possibility of doing so before September 30 or are we now looking at December?

Based on our current vaccination rate, we certainly won't be vaccinated by the end of the year. Is that true?
