Mr. Speaker, I thank the parliamentary secretary for his speech.
I would like to come back to something that happened earlier today. The Prime Minister held a press conference, but in the end, no new information was provided. He did not announce anything new on travel restrictions or vaccine supply. He wanted to reassure the public on this issue, but instead he only increased our concerns. Our dependence on foreign production for vaccine doses is worrisome when other nations threaten to bring in export restrictions, as could be the case with the AstraZeneca vaccine.
A reporter asked the Prime Minister what would happen if this were to occur regarding a vaccine approved by Health Canada. The Prime Minister replied that it would be extremely worrisome, and that was it.
Can the parliamentary secretary give us an answer that is more reassuring?
