Prime Minister Justin Trudeau says the federal government will work with provinces to ensure there is an "internationally accepted proof of vaccination" for international travel, but will leave domestic options up to the provincial governments. Trudeau's comments come after some provinces, like Quebec and Manitoba, have announced plans for an internal vaccine passport. "Different provinces will be doing different things, where the federal government has a role to play and where we are looking is in terms of vaccine certification for international travel," Trudeau said. Any attempt to bring in a domestic vaccine passport could be met by resistance from some provinces. (Ryan Remiorz/The Canadian Press)Trudeau said last month that his government is working on an international vaccine passport program, but the idea has raised concerns about privacy.
