"Our government has worked hard to secure tens of millions of doses, so we're prepared once a safe, effective vaccine is ready for Canadians," Trudeau said Tuesday. That explanation did little to calm Conservative concerns in the House as Trudeau was pressed by the opposition for answers on when vaccines would arrive and the government's plan is for distributing them. Do we have the ability to do this and when are Canadians going to get these vaccines?"
