Justin Trudeau is lying about why Canada is delayed getting vaccines. He says:
“One of the things to remember is Canada no longer has any domestic production capacity for vaccines.”
Nonsense! We have production capacity. Let me explain. (Thread) https://nationalpost.com/news/politics/trudeau-warns-covid-19-vaccine-will-come-later-to-canada-than-other-countries

Our National Research Council in Montreal has the facilities to make adenovirus-based vaccines like the Oxford/AstraZeneca one. In fact, NRC last year was THE WORLD’S FIRST LAB to deploy a vaccine using this technology (it was for rabies). https://nrc.canada.ca/en/stories/keeping-our-furry-friends-healthy-artemis-technologies-inc-partners-nrc-produce-successful
Since the summer, I have told the Liberal government REPEATEDLY that they could make the AstraZeneca vaccine in NRC’s Montreal lab.
But the Trudeau government never listened.
AstraZeneca is totally open to that kind of partnership. I’ll give some examples.

Australia paired up with AstraZeneca. They began making the vaccine locally weeks ago, even before knowing that it works. https://www.google.ca/amp/s/amp.abc.net.au/article/12864072
Japan also paired up with AstraZeneca, and a local Japanese company is making the stuff. https://asia.nikkei.com/Business/Pharmaceuticals/AstraZeneca-to-supply-Japan-with-120m-COVID-19-vaccine-doses
