Canada’s vaccination program has been plagued with problems across several provinces, ranging from delayed shipments, supply chain problems, uneven distribution, communication and booking issues. While our case counts are less in comparison, many Canadians are feeling pangs of jealousy watching the United States vaccinate an average of more than 3 million people per day. Deep into a third wave, it appears the COVID fortunes between Canada and the U.S. have been reversed. We talk about the factors that are leading to a vaccine gap between Canada and its biggest ally, the consequences for the border and whether Canada can step up its record in the next several months.
