Thank you for that answer. I certainly appreciate it.
I remember speaking to local media. They had asked me when I was going to raise my voice in terms of a potential vaccine shortage. I told them that the contract said six million doses by the end of March. Obviously, we know that we have now received more than 9.5 million doses before the end of March.
You could have sat back and said that they respected their timeline. How is it that you and your department negotiated and planned to ensure that we were able to get the doses to Canadians, and get more doses than expected?
