Canada’s rollout of the vaccine: success or failure?

Confusion reigns during the first months of the rollout of the COVID-19 vaccine.

Minister of International Development, Karina Gould, talks about Canada’s role in the global distribution of the vaccine. Dr. Matthew Miller weighs in on the efficacy of the vaccine, and Dr. Shannon Macdonald talks about the plight of vaccinating indigenous peoples.
