Madam Chair, I do not think the minister can explain how it works because I do not think she knows, or perhaps she does not want to know.
What I can say is that the United States was able to negotiate its contract, and its vaccine negotiations have been made public.
Also, we learned today that the Food and Drug Administration and Health Canada are working together on approving the vaccine. The minister, however, keeps telling us that we will have to wait.
Just today, we were told that everything is going to be done at the same time, while the United States is announcing that people will be able to get vaccinated in two weeks.
Why can't Canada be more transparent and clear? Can the minister tell us about something other than her large portfolio of vaccines? That does not mean anything to us right now.
