Madam Speaker, it is to make vaccines available, develop an effective system at the border that is based on science and evidence for controlling the flow of COVID cases into the country, and engage constructively with the provincial government to support the delivery of services that are required. I think that constructive engagement, as well as taking care of those areas of federal responsibility, is precisely what the federal government and national politicians need to be doing.
