"In October 2020, before the vaccine was approved, the federal government penned a deal to buy up to 76 million doses of the drug, in addition to providing $173 million in funding to support the vaccine's development and the construction of a new Quebec City manufacturing plant."

so what? Is this supposed to be a shot at the Liberals for "wasting" the money? It doesn't hit.
At the time with what we were going through with COVID and before the vaccines came out, I think the money was a fair spend. Especially as there was outrage at not having a home gown vaccine.
The landscape of vaccines has greatly changed since then.
