Madam Speaker, we all know this is the season when the wind blows hard in Winnipeg, and I have found a certain parallel in the member's speech.
We heard lots of talk about portfolios of vaccines. We heard lots of talk about bringing people to the table. We heard lots of talk about everything except when people in my riding could expect to get a vaccine.
I am hearing from families who have seniors in long-term care. They want to know when they are going to get vaccinated.
We have front-line health care workers who work with my partner. They are asking, “When are we going to get vaccinated?”
We have the grocery store workers, who want to know when the vaccine is going to be available.
When we hear figures like 9% or 8% of people being vaccinated by April, it is not good enough for the people in my riding. They do not want to hear more about portfolios of vaccines. They want to hear a plan to get those front-line workers and those seniors at high risk vaccinated in short order.
