\u0027We have been the slowest Western country in the world to arrange a vaccine supply”\u0027: health policy expert

But a closer look at the announcement of pre-order deals with four leading companies makes it less clear that Canadians will indeed be among the first to get inoculated.

Pressed on timing, Procurement Minister Anita Anand said Monday Canada could start getting vaccine “as early as the first quarter of 2021.” Unlike some other countries, Canada has also not revealed how much it has paid to gain advanced access to potential vaccines, saying it doesn’t want to undermine its negotiating strategy on further deals.

The minister also stressed that inking agreements with the various makers of COVID-19 vaccines has been no easy task.Article content continued

Anybody taking these vaccines must be completely insane.

good then we can see if the stupid thing actually works might be the only thing dipshit and cabinet have done right yet

Shove your vaccine

casalomass Canada has fallen behind 30+ Countries for vaccine purchases, actual purchases. Whether you believe in the vaccine or not that puts us at a distinct disadvantage TrudeauMustGo

Trudeau would like that and probably pay for those ahead of us

Why hasn’t there been more coverage of China reneging on its vaccine deal with Canada?

rexglacer How much did CCPChina extort from TrudeauCorruption government on this CCPChinaCoronaVirus and how much valuable time/lives was lost during this CCPVirus pandering. These are questions Canadians need to know.

Jesus you'd think we would learn our lesson and start doing it ourselves

Good, we don’t need a vaccine for something with 99% survival rate. Any vaccine rushed through without years in the making is not safe. Just say NO.

Put us at the back of the line.

Emilyfo04914299 It's too fast anyway. Don't add to the hysterical hype, Post.

levinepmc Glad we have some good vaccines lined up now with arguably reputable companies. Should have done it sooner. Still don’t understand why our first deal was with CCP. I would really like to hear the thought process on that one

If they get the vaccine right we could eradicate the virus. Wouldn’t that be dreamy. I trust science so I’ll have no problem taking the vaccine.

AnnStew80895938 Will we be getting a refund on the $44M we’ve given to CanSino or are we going to have to write it off like the $30M we prepaid to we for work not performed too?

USA will have a vaccine by the end of the year but our media will try to convince you that Trudeau did a good job on Covid and Trump did a bad job.

Signed well after other nations so we will be LAST to get them- another example of the Trudeau government having NO PLAN...!!!!

rexglacer Which nation gets to be the first guinea pigs I wonder

Of course we do. And we'll do it very politely. We'll apologize for being so goddam stupid as to end up in this situation. We'd better just hope that when America fails as a state, and is taken over by a dictatorial government, that we don't get swept-up in the carnage.

😂6%

Because they went with China... idiots

When your late to the game

Vaccines make you sick, try natural supplements

Canada is a meme country.

Canada will get the leftover shit that doesn’t work and pay full price for it. It’s the Canadian way.

Will not may

. Thought Xi Jinping 🇨🇳, China, was Trudeau's buddy? Guess not any more, not blowing $ or PPE up Xi's butt anymore? 🤔 .

. Trudeau losing bribe power? 🤔 .

When you bet all your money on China as your saviour you suffer the consequences of weak pandering leadership - The legacy of the Trudeau Liberal Govt!
