Why Canada is so far behind the US for vaccine rollout (VIDEO)

America has been vaccinating an average of 2.3 million people per day against COVID-19, as of this past weekend. 

Compare that to Canada, where a total of 2.5 million people have been vaccinated since December 2020, according to the federal government’s Covid 19 vaccination tracker. 

So if this is a competition, we are losing, really badly.

So far, Canada has four vaccines that have been approved and has ordered the world’s largest number of COVID-19 vaccines per capita. 

But the government is struggling with actually securing and administering them.

So what seems to be the problem?
