Remember in 2020 when the idea of national vaccination passports was a "conspiracy theory"?
I do.
When I spoke about these passports I was told, "you're crazy," and asked, "have you been listening to Alex Jones?" People thought I was nuts. I guess truth really is stranger than fiction these days.
But here it is, no longer a conspiracy theory:
We made a commitment to ensure that there is a national standard for a proof of vaccination certificate that will be issued by every province and territory so that people can travel domestically, but particularly internationally. Today, I'm happy to confirm that all provinces and territories have confirmed that they will be moving forward with a standardized national proof of vaccination. As of today, so far we have Saskatchewan, Ontario, Quebec, Nova Scotia, Newfoundland, and all three territories, Nunavut, Northwest Territories, and Yukon already have put into use the national standard for proof of vaccination. You can download it onto your phone; you can print it out; you can ask for a copy by mail if you don't have those capacities. But you are now able to show proof of vaccination immediately in all those provinces, and all other provinces have agreed and are working hard to come on line so that as Canadians look to start traveling again there will be a standardized proof of vaccination certificate, that, as we said, we will be picking up the tab for at the federal level.
Really glad you're picking up the tab for this, Justin. That's, like, so nice of you!
Here's a little secret: the reason all these things that are happening today were considered "conspiracy theories" a year ago is because if the citizens had been aware of what was happening around them they would've never let it get this far. There was a war being pursued against the collective mind, and it worked.
