#3Germany is now giving the dozes away as there's low demand. I wonder if the same rules will be in place in Europe.

#4It’s surprising since an 81% vaccination rate is already near the top of forecasts. Will a 90% or 95% rate make that much of a difference to justify forcing people to do so?

Who is actually paying for all of this? America is giving away doses, but for some reason I can’t fathom the drug companies doing this out of the goodness of their hearts.
If there’s all this money laying around for COVID doses, ad everybody gets a shot no questions asked, maybe they could put that same energy behind insulin!

81% for adults.

The US federal government is purchasing doses from drug companies at pre-negotiated prices and then giving them away to foreign countries.

#8It's been established that vaccinated people can get Covid and that they can infect others. Just yesterday - an outbreak on a cruise ship: https://www.houstonchronicle.com/news/houston-texas/galvesto...
This is a pointless exercise, people must get vaccinated to reduce the load on the healthcare system, but widespread vaccination on its own won't make enclosed spaces safe.

#9It's likely because of the election.
Trudeau is calling for an election in the next few weeks. By announcing this now, he dares the opposition to say it's the wrong move, so that he can say he's protecting Canadians and the conservatives won't. Keep me in charge to stay safe. Only 10% of Canadians are opposed to vaccines, so it won't be an unpopular choice.
And if the opposition says it's the right move, he can say "even the conservatives agree with my decision, clearly I'm doing the right things".
Edit: and to be clear, I think it's the right move regardless.

Theyre printing money to pay for everything which is causing massive inflation.
