Canada most likely won’t need it. Most believe their weekly vaccination capacity is around 3million and they will already receive that on their own next month, from pfizer and moderna. The US will probably give out AstraZeneca and Johnson’s vaccine which isn’t approved in the USA, or most of their citizens don’t care for. Canada also has vaccines from both which they aren’t sure what to do with it. Developed world got first pick, and they will take Pfizer and moderna. The resto will go tô the rest of the world.
Agreed.

As much as I want to be selfish and want to get my second shot asap, the spare US vaccines really should go to other parts of the world that need them more than Canada does. It's the right thing to do.

You’ll get your second dose soon. Once supply reaches their max capacity, and 1st dose reaches 70% of adults, demand will surely start going down and they will have to speed up second doses. Currently, Canada is vaccinating almost as much as they receive weekly. I expect them to start speeding up second doses mid/late June.

Some positive news. Hang in there.
Thanks, this and the news that they will process pending FSW applications as early as August are definitely rays of hope, which this thread needs more of. The rest of the stuff in the last 50 pages is pure conjecture.

Applicants within USA are allowed to travel to Canada. Therefore issuance of COPR makes sense. In my view, it’s not a new one. There is no hope for now.

Yeah, it isn't much, but I haven't heard of any cases of FSW-O getting COPRs, even in the US, for months.
And I'd be really happy if they just pick up speed on FSW-Os in the US and FSW-Is for now, which will at least show that decisions are being made based on COVID and precautionary measures and not some larger political move.
