The federal government has destroyed almost a third of all COVID-19 vaccine doses that entered its inventory, after spending an estimated total of $10.6 billion on vaccine purchases.

Information tabled by the government in an Inquiry of Ministry on April 8 provides a breakdown of every dose purchased, donated, and destroyed, listed by manufacturers and product types.
Public Services and Procurement Canada (PSPC) says a total of 353.5 million doses were purchased through advanced purchase agreements with under ten manufacturers, enough to vaccinate every Canadian over eight times.
