Mr. Speaker, we have a plan that we adopted back in 2006.
Our goal is to ensure that there is a balance between speed and gathering as much information on the vaccine's safety and effectiveness before we start distributing it across the country. We are on target. We have confirmed that we will be distributing the vaccine to provinces and territories the first week of November. We have been saying that all along.
That plan was endorsed by all the provinces and territories yesterday at the FPT meeting in Winnipeg.
