Canada's first doses of Pfizer-BioNTech's COVID-19 vaccine arrived in Quebec on Sunday night, with more to follow on Monday.

"This is good news," Prime Minister Justin Trudeau said on Twitter. "But our fight against COVID-19 is not over. Now more than ever, let's keep up our vigilance."

Maj.-Gen. Dany Fortin, who is in charge of logistics at the Public Health Agency of Canada's national operations centre, told CBC's Chief Political Correspondent Rosemary Barton earlier on Sunday that he is confident provinces are prepared to receive and administer the first batch of approximately 30,000 doses.

"The delivery schedule is unfolding exactly as planned," Fortin said in an interview on Rosemary Barton Live.

"Some flights will arrive tonight, some flights will arrive tomorrow, some trucks will cross the border tomorrow. So it's all coming in the coming day or two."
