Day: March 17, 2021
The Honourable Marc Garneau, Minister of Foreign Affairs, today issued the following statement: “The arbitrary detention of Mr. Kovrig and Mr. Spavor is a top priority for the Government of Canada and we continue to work tirelessly to secure their immediate release.
Deliveries of vaccine doses to Canada have been ramping up in size and frequency. But due to the vaccination campaign’s slow start — and the recent emergence of highly contagious virus variants — governments and public health officials are under enormous pressure to deliver first doses as swiftly as possible.
The two ministers discussed the fight against the COVID-19 pandemic, including the need to ensure access to vaccines and an inclusive and green post-pandemic recovery.
