Leaked presentations reveal that Canada won’t have a national Covid-19 vaccine passport system until December 2021, at the earliest. A total lack of national infrastructure, however, means that could be delayed even further.
The internal PowerPoint presentation, prepared by the Treasury Board of Canada, reveals that even more than a year after the global pandemic hit, Canada still lags other countries in developing a system to issue and recognize proof of immunity to Covid-19.
While there are no plans to make such a vaccine passport mandatory, a lack of a standardized, national, vaccine record could hobble Canadians’ ability to travel abroad as the world slowly reopens.
