Early in the COVID-19 pandemic, the Canadian government partnered with a China-based firm to create and produce a made-in-Canada vaccine. But after several months, the deal fell apart with not a single dose of vaccine administered to Canadians.
In our season premiere, we talk to those who were involved about why the deal stalled. We hear from those who say the Canadian government should never have considered the vaccine at a time when Canada and China were locked in a political battle over a Chinese tech executive under house arrest in Vancouver at the same time Canadians Michael Spavor and Michael Kovrig were behind bars in China.
The Fifth Estate's Bob McKeown examines the role those tensions may have played in scuttling the deal for the vaccine Thursday at 9 p.m. on CBC TV.
