Trudeau defended his government’s efforts, even as cases rise, an increase that could have been slowed if the vaccine had been administered more widely and…

“We worked extremely hard from last summer onwards to sign many different contracts with different potential vaccine makers around the world,” he said.

During a press conference, Trudeau said Canada’s vaccine shipments may have started slow, but there were problems outside of the government’s control and shipments were now coming regularly. Trudeau said vaccines alone can not address the pandemic and encouraged Canadians to follow all public health measures and reduce their contacts.

“They obviously have a higher rate of vaccination than we have. But they also have significant restrictions that have been in place for quite a long time,” said Trudeau. “What we need in order to ease restrictions in this country as we get closer to summer is for more people to get vaccinated. And for the caseload, to go down across the country.”

Earlier this month, the blood clot issue, which had previously only been seen in cases abroad, led the government to focus the vaccine on those people over the age of 55, where the risk of a clot was less likely and the risk of severe outcomes from COVID much higher.Article content

No regrets? Shame on you.

No regrets as in justintrudeau 'I'm not sorry thousands of Canadians got sick and died because of my failure to act decisively'? Do you think your father would be proud of you, Justin? ctvqp warrenkinsella brianlilley ezralevant ErinOTooleMP MichelleRempel PierrePoilievre

Last summer! He was briefed on this Fall 2019. So he's basically admitting he did nothing for about 8 months... but no regrets. Never mind substance, he can't even get the optics right on this one.

Embarrassing.

The arrogance of these Canadian politicians.

As our ICU's continue to fill up at astonishing rates, and as the US Vaccinated the entire population of Canada multiple times over in the past 90 days, this guy doesn't have regrets? Must be nice to live a life of status and privilege and not worry about dying by going to work!

I would feel very ashamed

Arrogance, ignorance

How ignorant

To arrogant to have regrets

What planet is he living on?

Trudeau3rdwave. Let’s call it for whose is responsible for it.

How long do we have to endure this bum, a former drama teacher with a famous name?

still arrogant. vaccine procurement total disaster. where are the contracts? and ask about international travel

Just the sight of this world champion phoney makes me want to retch!

He doesn’t have to worry about getting the vaccine

The Donald Trump of the liberal party...if he says no regrets imagine how bad it would have to be before he would admit his failure as a leader.

Another Turdeau says it is, so it is...The piece of shite needs to be flushed out of PMO!

Always feels like he is feeding us a big load 💩

No surprise here, have you ever heard him express regrets for anything he has done. Although he has expressed for the mistakes of others so have to give him some credit.

A juvenile drama teacher riding on the old mans coat tails. Canada now is an effing WOKE JOKE.

The fact that Trudeau does not regret not obtaining more vaccines sooner is an indictment of the Liberals failed policy.

We have NACI recommendation to e tend the dose interval between first and second shots with no evidence - in fact emerging evidence it is unsafe. AnitaOakville we are talking numbers but not timing of delivery. We need more sooner. Stop the 🧫 experiment!

Begin with the TrudeauCOVIDColludingPM end in mind. From the PMO: Q2 2021, Daily new COVID-21 cases, Enhanced Third Lock Down, Universal Basic Income Canada’s HealthPass transition, Projected vaccine inventory shortages, large scale economic instability.

It keeps him in power so he doesnt regret the lockdowns, deaths and vaccine rollout failure...nore does he care

Arrogant

Maybe someday it will just 'go away' Justin.

No choice

Of course not. Initially he, Trudeau, partnered with the CHINESE for the vaccines while our two Michaels are being held illegaly. How dumb is that? So he WASTED 4 months with the Chinese instead of working with our allies and friends.

A regrettable statement by Liberals & Trudeau. They've royally bungled the Covid response, in every conceivable way. ...But, that does *not* warrant mass rudeness. Glance at comment section; there's no careful reflection on Liberals' policy blunders, only base rudeness.Tsk,tsk.

This guy has never accepted responsibility for anything in his entire life.

Hopefully this will be his nail in the coffin

Good for him, meanwhile the rest of us are sitting around like idiots waiting for these things to arrive... while the Americans have more than they will ever need... they are also opening up, while we are closing down

A faster roll out could have meant less illnesses and less deaths. Seems rather foolish attitude.

What a joke of a PM. Justin will forever be known as the worst PM in Canada's history.

No regrets. Of course not you never own any of your wrong doings! That is why you are the pimple on Canada’s ass and nobody wants to squeeze you out! In my opinion lol.

I am sure a lot of people have regrets about voting Liberal.

On one side people are complaining the other side they are not going to get their shots. Also I hope the politicians now realized we need in house ability instead of importing everything from other countries. We need our industries, businesses and people to rely on for our needs

A panel of judges shd investigate & determine whether there is something to regret. He cant be his own judge &jury. canada is a democracy & CanadianPM ethical & moral responsibility & our democratic system transparency requires him to call for a non partisan investigation

“We worked extremely hard ...' Even if that's true, results matter, not effort. Give them all a blue 'Thanks for Participating and Trying Really Hard' ribbon and find a team that can get the job done.

Canada should have lots of regrets since the last election!!

Not surprised. He is a very bad bad person.

Of course he doesn’t. He’s gotten his already. What does he care?!?

He did well, Not his fault that AstraZeneca vaccine would turn out bad.

Why would he regret? Already minister cafreeland mentioned that to them this pandemic is a window of 'Political Opportunity '. Imagine people are dying & they are busy thinking of how to benefit from this pandemic. Shameless! Canada cdnpoli

Erm.... clearly PMJT is a fool. But wait a minute, we knew that already!

‘We’ can all learn from this instructive moment 😂 nevermejustwe

He has no regrets on We scandal, SNC, black face, grouping, failed vaccines, selling Canada to China, appointed GG... and the list goes on.. I only wonder if his followers are so hypocrite too..

Harper's fault?

Shocker, PMJT unwilling to admit wrongdoing...

Of course not. Accountability and JustinTrudeau don’t mix.

Good leaders can reflect, review, & objectively critique oneself so they learn from their experiences & avoid similar pitfalls in the future. Poor leaders always have no regrets. How can one have no regrets when more that 23K died & another +1M may live with long term effects?

How can anyone be that stupid!!!!!! What a jag- off

Not surprised. He’ll get away with it too given much of population values his virtue signalling above real results. But it was his engagement with the Chinese until the end of August that ended up costing thousands of Canadian lives - that record cannot ever be erased.

Trudeau is responsible for all the deaths in Canada! He should take responsibility for being so inept as a leader!

The man is a failure.

He has no regrets about anything.. the man walks on water.. prime-narcassist.. 3rd world pandemic and vaccine strategy and rollout and still playing games, sadly enough people prefer the colour of his socks... Stomach turning..

No regrets? Wow the nerve of this guy!

He’s completely out of his mind. He’s proving once again that he is totally disconnected with reality. But he also knows that the majority of canadians won’t remember how unprofessional everyone in his entourage were in dealing the contrats for vaccines with the big pharma. 👎👎

Wow that’s very smug

Douchebag

' Prime Minister Justin Trudeau said there is nothing about Canada’s vaccine procurement effort he would do differently' OMG, to make mistakes is one thing but to refuse to acknowledge them or worse, to be blind to them, is really alarming.

Technically it’s the long disaster before the rollout that he should have massive regrets over.

He can defend all he wants, he failed!!

If JustinTrudeau doesn’t have any regrets...he really is that stupid. The man is completely incompetent. Here’s a regret: Counting on China to give Canada vaccines? Giving away tonnes of PPE to China when Canada really needed it? The list is long. Total failure.

He perceives things differently than most!

alot of voters definitely have regrets......voting this village idiot in

Wrong answer

I

what an embarrassment. loser

It’s opportunity To bring in Socialism the green agenda. Through the failure of his ability to handle the pandemic. Unlike other G7 countries we turn into venezuela socialism. Liberals Failures have cost people their lives.

That’s because he already has his shots and is not worried about anything while living way up there on mount Olympus

“No regrets” and yet Bojo in the UK has expressed numerous mea culpa’s despite the successful vaccine rollout. The arrogance is astonishing

Neither the National Post nor Trudeau will address the inconsistency and fraudulent reporting with the PCR test. Yet have no problem fear mongering third, fourth, fifth waves of COVID19

What roll out...lol

Justin will try to control what info gets out to the voters. Before an election, voters deserve investigations into where taxpayers money has gone, and who got it. If the voters are denied this information before an election, it will be an assault democracy.

Grounds for “no confidence “ in this minority government.

Its true, assholes never see the problems they create.

Omg I what a complete moron it’s clear it was the worst of the g 7

No regrets Our country is in shambles right now...

how bizarre Prime Minister has no egrets about Canada's vaccine rollout and the consequences it faces. Canada is now overtaken the United States for the first time, this isn’t a laughing matter this is a dangerous situation Canada is in now without any vaccines in hand.

Thousands dead. Millions suffering from lockdowns. No cohesive plan. Poor vaccine rollout. And he has no regrets.

If it cost him on the polls, he would be contrite. Canadians don’t care, why should he?

Never accepts responsibility

He said he worked really hard from last summer onwards. The pandemic started in later winter WTH

Of course he doesn't. The mail in election he needs is forth coming.

He did his job...kenney and Ford did not. I always hoped the military would do the roll out. We would have all been vaccinated by now or close to it.

JustinTrudeau your vaccine “roll out” is a joke.

What planet is he living on?

I think Canada should bring back the death penalty just before puts Trudeau on trial and convicts him for treason

I am sure all the people who lost someone are very comforted knowing how hard he worked. And of course no one minds not being able to see family and friends. Small business is ok with starting over.

Well, hearing that he planned for us to be 54th in the World, that changes everything. Now I'm voting Liberal . . .

Shut down the borders. No air travel.
