I'm afraid I think it is pie in the sky, to be honest. We saw that as the pandemic was crossing the whole world, it became every person for themselves very quickly.
When COVAX was originally designed, the idea was that everybody was supposed to buy their vaccines through COVAX. No sooner did it became very clear that countries were doing these advance purchase agreements than COVAX was amended and we were getting into these footnotes about whether what Canada was doing was legit or not.
However, the original idea was that all of us would buy from COVAX. Nobody wanted to do that. The European member states didn't want to go along with it. The United States, of course, never signed up, and Canada was quickly out the door with its advance purchase agreements.
I think on a reasonable basis—and this is what I keep coming back to—from a Canadian point of view, the opportunity would have been to just get on an airplane and have the Prime Minister have a conversation—as difficult as it might have been for him—with Mr. Trump. That's just as it was a difficult conversation for Stephen Harper to get inside the tent for GM and Chrysler. The Americans didn't want us. I don't know how many people realize that. The Americans were quite happy to do GM and Chrysler restructuring on their own, and there is a pretty decent argument that Canada overpaid. We paid 20% of the freight for that. We did not have 20% of the North American auto industry at the time.
