Thank you, Mr. Chair.
Mr. Chair, I am always happy to hear from our minister and the officials, and so are my colleagues.
My constituents will be interested in listening to the testimony of these officials. I think all of the items listed in the motion are important. It is good that we are looking into them.
I want to point out, though, that we repeatedly find ourselves here where some opposition members are raising alarms in a way that risks creating confusion among Canadians. They said that we were at the back of the line for vaccines, and we got them even before Christmas. They said that we would not hit the Q1 target, and we exceeded it. By the end of this week, we will have received 9.5 million doses and, by the end of Q2, we will have 43 million doses, Mr. Chair.
We know that there are going to be questions along the way. We were dealing with a virus that did not even exist two years ago. Evidence will change, and the scientists' opinions will differ. I am happy that our government listened to all of these, but that does not interfere in our regulatory process.
As I said before, I think it is important we listen to the officials, and I look forward to hearing my colleague on it, too.
