Trudeau government wasted $300 million on failed vaccine project

The CBC has flipped on its master, delivering a bombshell report about his government’s incompetence.

Justin Trudeau’s propaganda division, the Canadian Broadcasting Corporation (CBC), has joined the Toronto Star in reporting negatively on him and his scandal-plagued government.

Trudeau’s trusted cheerleader Susan Delacourt recently published a damning article highlighting how his political rival Pierre Poilievre is all but guaranteed to win the next federal election.

Now the CBC has published a report showcasing the fact that the Liberal wasted $300 million of taxpayer money on a failed vaccine project.

MPs on the House of Commons health committee voted Wednesday to launch a study into the more than $300 million the Liberal government paid to a now-shuttered Quebec-based pharmaceutical company whose COVID-19 vaccine never made it to market.

Conservative MP Stephen Ellis brought forward the motion calling for the study after reporting by the National Post revealed last week that the government paid $150 million to Medicago in the form of a “non-refundable” advanced purchase agreement.

The Liberal government signed that agreement in October 2020 to secure up to 76 million doses of a plant-based COVID-19 vaccine it was developing.

The government also provided Medicago with an additional $173 million for research and development and for the construction of the company’s Quebec City manufacturing facility.

The vaccine never made it to market and Medicago was shuttered earlier this year.

“Three hundred million dollars of taxpayer money was wasted and … was hidden deep in a document,” Ellis told the committee. “The sunny ways and transparency of this Liberal government have gone long and far and deep into some dark, dank cave.”
