I obviously can't speak for the Government of Canada. All I can say is that we're hoping to see Canada take a strong stand to support the waiver of the TRIPS. This is because ultimately it's a matter of scale. We need to be producing vaccines everywhere we can, in every country we can, in every lab that can produce them. At this moment in time, if we're dependent on some pharmaceutical countries, then vaccination could be delayed for three or four years, or even, as Madame Demarais said, some countries could simply decide to forego vaccination.
If you look at some of the vaccines today, it costs almost $40 for a two-dose vaccine. Poor countries are not going to be able to pay that for their entire population, so we're hoping that Canada will say yes to a temporary waiver.
